Animal fiber characterization and fiber loading effect on mechanical behaviors of sheep wool fiber reinforced polyester composites
(2020-12-06)
This study presents animal fiber characterization and the influence of various fiber loadings on mechanical properties of sheep hair fiber-reinforced polymer (SHFRP) composites. The sheep hair fibers (SHF) characterization ...
Cellulosic fiber based hybrid composites: A comparative investigation into their structurally influencing mechanical properties
(2020-11-25)
This paper focuses on hybrid and twisted hybrid Indian mallow/roselle cellulosic fiber yarn mat reinforced polyester composites and effects of their wood sawdust filler. The composite materials were fabricated using ...
Review on 3D printing: Fight against COVID-19
(2020-10-22)
The outbreak of Coronavirus in 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus and its pandemic effects have created a demand for essential medicine equipment. To date, there are no specific, clinically effective licensed ...
3D printing of PEEK–cHAp scaffold for medical bone implant
(2020-10-21)
The major drawback associated with PEEK implants is their biologically inert surface, which caused unsatisfactory cellular response and poor adhesion between the implants and surrounding soft tissues against proper bone ...
