A continuous fiber-reinforced build material for additive manufacturing (AM) of fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) structures, a machine for the preparation of the build material, and use of the build material for manufacturing of three-dimensional (3D) FRC end-product devices, such as medical devices for management of musculoskeletal and dental disorders.

Textile compositions comprising at least one filamentous fungus are disclosed, as are methods for making and using such textile compositions. Embodiments of the textile compositions generally include at least one of a plasticizer, a polymer, and a crosslinker, in addition to the filamentous fungus. The disclosed textile compositions are particularly useful as analogs or substitutes for conventional textile compositions, including but not limited to leather.

The present disclosure provides for aqueous, curable binder compositions, as well as articles and products comprising assemblies of matter comprising mineral fibers, synthetic fibers, natural fibers, cellulosic particles and sheet materials comprising the binder compositions disclosed herein.

A self-adhesive prepreg comprising a fibre reinforcement layer having a first side and a second side, wherein the first side of the fibre reinforcement layer has been pre-impregnated with a self-adhesive resin composition. The self-adhesive may be used as a structural reinforcement and is especially adapted for direct bonding to oily steel or galvanized steel in the automotive, aerospace and other sheet metal fabrication industries.

An insulation system of a current-carrying conductor of an electric machine. The insulation system comprises a thermally curable resin including a polymer resin matrix and a nanoparticulate filler. A mica paper or mica tape is impregnated with the thermally curable resin. The thermally curable resin comprises nanoparticulate filler, the total quantity of nanoparticulate filler being at least 0.1 wt % and not more than 0.5 wt %.

The invention relates to a continuous fibrous tape comprising a substantially planar sheet of natural fibres of length Li. The sheet has a longitudinal dimension L and a transverse dimension w. The sheet comprises planar units positioned in n longitudinal lines. The planar units of adjoining longitudinal lines are misaligned by a misalignment distance Lv, with Lv being at least 3 w/n. Furthermore if the misalignment distance Lv between planar units of a first longitudinal line and the planar units of a second longitudinal line is less than 3 w/n, then there are at least two longitudinal lines positioned between the first longitudinal line and the second longitudinal line. The invention further relates to a method of manufacturing such a continuous fibrous tape and to the use of such a continuous fibrous tape to manufacture a composite article.
