New Project to Assess the Credentials of Naturally Derived Building Materials

The BioCompass project
will address the problem faced by the construction industry in that there is
limited understanding of the environmental performance of these relatively new
materials, making like for like comparisons difficult. The work is being undertaken
under a UK LINK collaborative research project funded through the DEFRA renewable
materials programme.

New Book Addresses Concerns over Long Term Structural Performance of Composite Materials

Whilst the ageing of humans has been a popular point of discussion for many
years we are now looking at the world around us to assess the damage that ageing
can cause. Ageing of composites from Woodhead
Publishing addresses many of the uncertainties about the long-term performance
of composites, an important issue due to the increased use of composites in
structural applications.

Examination of Structural, Mechanical and Tribological Properties of Natural Fiber Polymer Composites

Bio-degradable materials are on the increase as a direct response to heightened
awareness of environmental issues. Plant-based natural fiber reinforced polymer
composites are an illustration of this, replacing conventional materials used
in applications such as automobiles. Tribology of natural fiber polymer composites
from Woodhead Publishing
examines the availability and processing of natural fiber polymer composites
and their structural, mechanical and tribological properties.

The Current State of the Global Semiconductor Market

The global semiconductor market has entered an exciting period. Demand for chip technology is both driving the industry as well as hindering it, with current chip shortages predicted to last for some time. Current trends will likely shape the future of the industry, which is set to continue to show

How are Graphene Batteries Made?

The primary distinction between graphene-based batteries and solid-state batteries lies in the composition of either electrode. Although the cathode is commonly changed, carbon allotropes can also be employed in fabricating anodes.

What Role Will The IoT Play In The Electric Vehicle Industry?
