Flame retardant polyurethane foam: graphene plus CPDD gains

A blend of amino-functionalized graphene modified with polyaniline plus the phosphorus-nitrogen flame retardant CPDD produces the strongest flame retardant polyurethane foam in this[…]

Epoxy Benzoxazine Composite: 138 MPa and Tg 132

The optimized epoxy benzoxazine composite carried 30 percent basalt fiber, 10 percent waste cotton textile fiber, and 1 percent graphene nanoplatelets, and it[…]

Styrene maleic anhydride copolymer: five grades, one choice

A styrene maleic anhydride copolymer gives you rigidity, polarity and a reactive anhydride ring, and that is all a plain grade gives you.[…]

Melt-Spun PAN Thermal Insulation Fiber: 1% Aerogel Wins

A PAN thermal insulation fiber made by melt spinning can be made stronger and more insulating at the same time, but only inside[…]

Silanized Graphene Oxide Reinforced Bio-Based Benzoxazine–Bismaleimide Composites: 142% Stronger, Tougher, and More Heat-Resistant

High-performance thermosets do a lot of quiet work. They hold aerospace panels together, insulate electronic laminates, and act as structural adhesives where failure[…]
