Abstract

The aim of the study was to define the composition and methodology for manufacturing laminated composites of polypropylene and continuous fiber reinforcement. These composites are designed with the aim of being integrated into high mechanical performance lightweight parts obtained [...]

Abstract

Specifically, the use of vinyl ester resins has been studied profusely in both the maritime and industrial sectors and with less time, in the use of reinforcement in civil engineering structures and architecture as passive reinforcements. The resin used in the present work is novel, [...]

Abstract

One of the main problems of composites is fire resistance properties. New fire-retardant additives are able to modestly improve this problem, although mechanical properties can be depleted.

For this reason, a large variety of phosphorus-based flame retardants have been [...]
