DEVELOPING ADVANCED COMPOSITES AND MATERIALS USING INDUSTRIAL RESIDUES
MOSS composites industrial research is focused on the development of composite materials with various novel inorganic matrix and tailored textile reinforcements capable of resisting impact and/or high temperatures.
#impact resistant composite materials operating in a temperature interval of 250° to 1350°C
Materials with various novel inorganic matrix or cementitious matrix composites CeMC™ are a group of materials which bridge the temperature performance gap between reinforced polymers and ceramic matrix composites (CMCs). In high temperature environments where reinforced polymers would fail and need to be replaced with metals, CeMC™ materials offer a lightweight alternative suitable for service temperatures up to 1350°C whilst providing a non-brittle failure mechanism.
CeMC™are produced in a similar manner to fibre reinforced epoxy composites whereby woven fibres are impregnated with a resin which sets to form a structure. In comparison to typical ceramic matrix composites,CMC , which are sintered at high temperatures , CeMC™ need only mild processing conditions of below 100°C, allowing a simple route to manufacture. In addition, this low temperature processing route facilitates the inclusion of additives in the matrix which would otherwise decompose or deteriorate at typical processing temperatures for manufacturing conventional ceramic matrix composites.
MOSS composites participates in:
- Nanoforce research program
