carbon-matrix composite
1Metal matrix composite — A metal matrix composite (MMC) is composite material with at least two constituent parts, one being a metal. The other material may be a different metal or another material, such as a ceramic or organic compound. When at least three materials are …
2Ceramic matrix composite — Fracture surface of a fiber reinforced ceramic composed of SiC fibers and SiC matrix. The fiber pull out mechanism shown is the key to CMC properties …
3Carbon fiber — or carbon fibre [See American and British English spelling differences.] (alternately called graphite fiber, graphite fibre or carbon graphite) is a material consisting of extremely thin fibers about 0.0002–0.0004 inches (0.005–0.010 mm) in… …
4Composite material — A cloth of woven carbon fiber filaments, a common element in composite materials Composite materials, often shortened to composites or called composition materials, are engineered or naturally occurring materials made from two or more constituent …
5Carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer — For fibers of carbon, see carbon (fiber). Tail of an RC helicopter, made of CFRP Carbon fiber reinforced polymer or carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP or CRP or often simply carbon fiber), is a very strong and light fiber reinforced polymer… …
6Carbon fiber reinforced plastic — (CFRP or CRP), is a very strong, light and expensive composite material or fiber reinforced plastic. Similar to glass reinforced plastic, sometimes known by the genericised trademark fiberglass, the composite material is commonly referred to by… …
7Carbon — (), but as most compounds with multiple single bonded oxygens on a single carbon it is unstable.] Cyanide (CN–), has a similar structure, but behaves much like a halide ion (pseudohalogen). For example it can form the nitride cyanogen molecule… …
8Composite overwrapped pressure vessel — A composite overwrapped pressure vessel (COPV) is a vessel consisting of a thin, non structural liner wrapped with a structural fiber composite, designed to hold a fluid under pressure. The liner provides a barrier between the fluid and the… …
9Carbon nanotube — Not to be confused with Carbon fiber. Part of a series of articles on Nanomaterials Fullerenes …
10Carbon nanotubes in photovoltaics — Organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs) are fabricated from thin films of organic semiconductors, such as polymers and small molecule compounds, and are typically on the order of 100 nm thick. Because polymer based OPVs can be made using a coating… …
