2. CFSMC - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CFSMC

   CFSMC, or Carbon Fiber Sheet Molding Compound (also known as CSMC or CF-SMC), is a ready to mold carbon fiber reinforced polymer composite material used in compression molding. While traditional SMC utilizes chopped glass fibers in a polymer resin, CFSMC utilizes chopped carbon fibers. The length and distribution of the carbon fibers is more ...

3. Carbon-fiber reinforced polymer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon-fiber_reinforced...

   The properties of a CFRP depend on the layouts of the carbon fiber and the proportion of the carbon fibers relative to the polymer. [6] The two different equations governing the net elastic modulus of composite materials using the properties of the carbon fibers and the polymer matrix can also be applied to carbon fiber reinforced plastics. [ 7 ]

4. Composite laminate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_laminate

   A small sample of aerospace grade carbon-fibre/epoxy laminate. In materials science, a composite laminate is an assembly of layers of fibrous composite materials which can be joined to provide required engineering properties, including in-plane stiffness, bending stiffness, strength, and coefficient of thermal expansion.

5. Composite material - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_material

   A composite or composite material (also composition material) is a material which is produced from two or more constituent materials. [1] These constituent materials have notably dissimilar chemical or physical properties and are merged to create a material with properties unlike the individual elements.

6. Carbon fibers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_fibers

   Carbon fiber sunglasses temples and carbon fiber bicycle frame tube. Carbon fiber can have higher cost than other materials which has been one of the limiting factors of adoption. In a comparison between steel and carbon fiber materials for automotive materials, carbon fiber may be 10-12x more expensive. However, this cost premium has come down ...

7. Composite gear housing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_gear_housing

   High strength epoxy adhesives are used in fabrication of carbon fiber composite drive shafts for cars. [1] The metal inserts provide support for bearings, shafts, gears and other metal components of the gearbox. The composite gear housing does not remove heat as efficiently as an aluminum or magnesium housing. Composite gear housings require ...

8. Specific strength - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_strength

   The materials with the highest specific strengths are typically fibers such as carbon fiber, glass fiber and various polymers, and these are frequently used to make composite materials (e.g. carbon fiber-epoxy). These materials and others such as titanium, aluminium, magnesium and high strength steel alloys are widely used in aerospace and ...

9. Epoxy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epoxy

   The applications for epoxy-based materials are extensive and they are considered very versatile. [33] The applications include coatings, adhesives [34] [35] and composite materials such as those using carbon fiber and fiberglass reinforcements (although polyester, vinyl ester, and other thermosetting resins are also used for glass-reinforced ...
