As FDM 3D printing technology continues to evolve, one factor remains crucial to achieving top-quality prints—the filament. The best 3D printer filament in 2025 not only enhances print quality but ...

We buy glass fiber and use it to make woven fabrics, sheet molding compound [SMC] and parts using resin infusion. We have also been buying carbon fiber, but we will now make it ourselves and expand ...

Advanced carbon fiber materials could be used in applications from wind turbine blades to biomedical implants following the development of a low-cost carbon fiber feedstock. The carbon fibers were ...

Experimental setup used for the local high-power laser-induced pyrolysis of a wound composite ring with simultaneous reclamation of the matrix-free carbon fiber roving. During the process, pyrolysis ...

Through this partnership, Benvic’s Plantura® portfolio, which incorporates TotalEnergies Corbion’s Luminy® PLA, offers biobased alternatives with a significate lower carbon footprint. These solutions ...

McLaren has been on the bleeding edge of carbon ... carbon fiber structures for the latest generation of air jetliners and fighter aircraft, particularly for large, crucial parts such as aircraft ...

the strength of parts. Chopped fibers can be blended with thermoplastics such as nylon, ABS or PLA. Alternatively, the fibers can be added to the thermoplastics to create a stronger part. The main ...
