Even when labs follow ASTM and ISO standards to the letter, tensile test results for unidirectional carbon fiber composites can still vary—and the reasons why aren't always what you'd expect. A recent ...

Toray Industries has created a high tensile modulus carbon fiber and thermoplastic pellets that are ideal for injection molding employing the said fiber. The pellets will reportedly enable the ...

Toray Industries, Inc. announced that it has developed Torayca™ M46X carbon fibre. The new offering is around 20% stronger than others in the Torayca™ MX series while maintaining a high tensile ...

Eve Air Mobility's eVTOL aircraft prototype reached 30 knots and 90 feet in 3 minutes, marking a critical step in transitioning from vertical to wing-borne flight and validating its pusher propulsion ...

When a material experiences an applied uniaxial tensile stress, s, it displays a strain response, e. In the initial stage of strain, the response is linear in the stress and may be described by ...

A recent article in Communications Materials proposed a novel approach to enhance the elastic modulus of a cast aluminum alloy by incorporating isostructural Laves phases to form a multi-component, ...

While most metals feature some degree of elasticity, some respond better than others to being bent out of shape. Scientists experimenting with the makeup of these materials have developed a novel, ...
