The delamination of a carbon/glass/epoxy hybrid composite was studied experimentally to analyze the effect of reinforcement heterogeneity on data dispersion. A statistical approach was applied to evaluate the effect of the ...

There are requirements for surfaces with antibacterial properties in various technological fields. U-PEO hybrids with antibacterial properties were synthesized by the sol-gel process, incorporating combinations of cerium ...

Mangrove plants comprise plants with similar ecological features that have enabled them to adapt to life between the sea and the land. Within a geographic region, different mangrove species share not only similar adaptations ...

This study compares the mechanical properties of curaua, glass and hybrid curaua/glass laminates evaluated experimentally with those obtained theoretically using commercial software for composites. Hybrids laminates were ...
