What is a TDS report? What are the differences between TDS reports and MSDS reports?
2024-07-17
All chemicals are told to provide MSDS report before export transportation, and some also need to provide TDS report. What is TDS report? TDS report (Technical Data Sheet) is a technical parameter table, also known as technical data sheet, chemical technical data sheet. It is a document that provides information on the technical specifications and performance of chemicals. TDS reports usually cont...

Compare 11 properties of carbon fiber, aramid fiber and glass fiber
2024-07-16
1. Tensile strength Tensile strength refers to the maximum stress that a material can withstand before stretching. Some non-brittle materials deform before they break, but Kevlar® fibers, carbon fibers, and glass fibers are brittle and break almost without deforming. Tensile strength is measured in force per unit area (Pa or Pascals). Stress is force, and strain is deflection due to stress. Th...

Modulus and tensile strength of reinforced fibers for composite materials
2024-07-16
At present, as a common reinforcement fiber for composite materials, there are usually three types: carbon fiber, glass fiber and Kevlar (aramid) fiber. When used for composite reinforcement, the fibers can define the performance standards of the material and are responsible for playing a load-bearing role in the design structure, while the resin matrix is primarily responsible for transferring th...

Top Five Carbon Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic Composite Materials
2024-05-27
Polymers are one of the most commonly used and well-known materials of the 21st century. However, pure polymers are not sufficient for use in industries that require great strength and excellent heat resistance. As a result, thermoplastic composites are the preferred materials, and creating these new materials will require overcoming obstacles such as high energy consumption, expensive material co...
