Carbon fiber is a pretty amazing material, what with its enormous strength and low weight. When you want performance, whether it has to do with accelerating and cornering quickly, reducing energy use, ...

Milan 2015: Vienna-based designer Thomas Feichtner has created a chair by laying sheets of woven carbon fibre over a mould and coating them with epoxy resin. Carbon-fibre fabric was draped to form the ...

[Thomas Sanladerer] wanted to make 3D prints using carbon fiber and was surprised that it was fairly inexpensive and worked well, although he mentions that the process is a bit intense. You can learn ...

Carbon fiber is a material with some very unique and valuable properties. In fact, it offers the best stiffness –to-weight ratio of any material you are likely to find, either made from metals or ...

IACMI Project 3.2 evaluated carbon fiber-reinforced composites infused with a novel epoxy-based resin system to develop structural composite parts with complex geometry to replace metals in ...

As materials go, carbon fibre isn't something you'd associate with anything other than a Formula One racing team, or a supercar. However, we've seen a couple of modders incorporate it into their ...

A team of researchers has developed a low-energy, scalable technique that can morph 2D materials into strong 3D structures ...

In the A5, Icon Aircraft has produced an airplane that handles easily, resists dangerous spins, and treats its pilots and passengers to an open, airy cockpit. What the small company hasn’t produced, ...
