Propargyl substituted novolac phenolic resin diluted with unsaturated bisphenol-A ethers was used for glass fiber solvent-free impregnation for the formation of high-performance composites. The addition of 20% mass of diallyl (DAEBA) or dipropargyl (DPEBA) bisphenol-A to propargyl substituted novolac phenolic resin resulted in viscosity drop from 2000 mPa∙s to 400‒500 mPa∙s at 140 °C. This proved to be enough to achieve complete impregnation of the twisted glass fibers, as illustrated by SEM analysis. This improvement in impregnation was shown to result in increasing both flexural strength and modulus of the unidirectional glass fiber composite material approximately with a factor of two compared to the composite impregnated with resin without bisphenol-A ethers. DPEBA was shown to be more suitable for high-temperate applications since its addition does not seem to result in a decrease of the heat deflection temperature (HDT).

A new type of modified phenolic resin/glass fiber composite is introduced. Phenolic resin was modified with 2% polyvinyl alcohol(PVA). Test specimens were prepared by mixing and molding. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was adopted to investigate its molecular structure. FTIR results showed that long aliphatic chain were introduced into the structure of PR, which could absorb the energy during load was applied on the composite. The toughing mechanism was investigated by comparing the impact strength, bending resistance, tensile strength with non-modified phenolic resin. Results shows that the impact strength of the modified PR/GF composite reaches 53.21 KJ/m2, which is almost 2 times more than that of pure PR/GF composite. Finally, the application of the modified PR/GF composite on shoes head was introduced.

In this study, sawdust and polypropylene (PP) are melt-blended and injection-molded to form the wood-plastic composite (WPC).The WPC is then tested in terms of mechanical properties and compared with control groups of pure PP plate and PP/glass fiber (PP/GF) composite. In the tensile test, the WPC displays a tensile strength of 25-27 MPa, regardless of whether the sawdust content is 5, 10, or 15 wt%. Pure PP composite has a tensile strength of 30 MPa; PP/GF composite with 15 wt% glass fibers has a tensile strength of 57 MPa. In the bending test, the WPC displays a flexural strength of 44-45 MPa as the sawdust content does not influence the bending strength. PP/glass fiber composite yields a bending strength of 85 MPa when the content of glass fiber is 15 wt%. WPC is 5% lighter than PP/glass fiber composite.

Nowadays, most materials used to manufacture denture base are heat-cured PMMA, to overcome the low strength of this material, different methods were used to strengthen the denture base and enhanced their properties. This study investigated the effect of glass fiber woven powder kaolinite (Al2Si2O5 (OH) 4) to influence and strength of flexure. Acrylic and kaolinite powders were mixed together and mixed again with acrylic liquid to prepare hybrid composite samples. Woven glass fiber composite was prepared by inserting woven glass fiber between the two halves of the dough. PMMA reinforced by (0, 20) wt% of woven glass fibers or/and (0, 2, 5, 7) wt% of kaolinite powder to prepare eight experimental groups (n= 7). The fractured surface was an evaluation by scanning electron microscope (SEM). X-ray diffraction and Fourier transforminfrared spectra FTIR tests were used to examine kaolinite powder. Samples were tested with the use of a Charpy testing machine for impact test and Instron tensile testing machine for flexural test after storage in water for 10 days at 37 °C. The results showed woven glass fibers with clay powder together significantly increased the mechanical properties of PMMA.

The use of composite materials, mainly reinforced thermoplastic has increased on the polymer industry, mainly the polypropylene resins (PP) reinforced by glass fibers (GF). The ionizing radiation can promote alterations in the polymeric chains by scission and crosslinking reactions. The objective of this work is to study the effect of the ionizing radiation in the properties of the polypropylene long fiber glass reinforced thermoplastic. Pellets with 1,3 cm of length, contend 15wt% of the unidirectional long glass fiber were obtained by extrusion and, subsequently, the samples were molded by injection, irradiated and submitted to thermal and mechanical tests. The mechanical (tensile and impact) properties and thermal (HDT and Vicat softening temperature) of irradiated and non irradiated reinforced thermoplastic were determined. The doses of the irradiation of the samples were 30, 50 and 100 kGy in a source of 60Co. The results showed a reduction in the thermal and mechanical performances indicating a degradation of the polymeric matrix.

Due to the sharp and corrosion-prone features of steel fibers, there is a demand for ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) reinforced with nonmetallic fibers. In this paper, glass fiber (GF) and the high-performance polypropylene (HPP) fiber were selected to prepare UHPC, and the effects of different fibers on the compressive, tensile and bending properties of UHPC were investigated, experimentally and numerically. Then, the damage evolution of UHPC was further studied numerically, adopting the concrete damaged plasticity (CDP) model. The difference between the simulation values and experimental values was within 5.0%, verifying the reliability of the numerical model. The results indicate that 2.0% fiber content in UHPC provides better mechanical properties. In addition, the glass fiber was more significant in strengthening the effect. Compared with HPP-UHPC, the compressive, tensile and flexural strength of GF-UHPC increased by about 20%, 30% and 40%, respectively. However, the flexural toughness indexes I5, I10 and I20 of HPP-UHPC were about 1.2, 2.0 and 3.8 times those of GF-UHPC, respectively, showing that the toughening effect of the HPP fiber is better.
