A manufacturing method of a halogen-free flame-retardant thermoplastic braided fiber reinforced polymer composite board, comprising steps of: preparing a recycled material containing a halogen-free flame-retardant thermoplastic braided fiber reinforced polymer composite; adding a polymer base material to the recycled material to form a core layer material and extruding the core layer material with a low shear extruder; hot pressing the core layer material by rollers to obtain a recycled fiber core layer; preparing a reinforcement layer containing a fiber material or a fabric with pores; and stacking and hot pressing the recycled fiber core layer and the reinforcement layer.

A vehicle component including a component body defining an aperture and including an outer textured surface surrounding the aperture on an exterior side of the component body; and a mesh extending over the aperture, a portion of the mesh being molded into at least a portion of the component surrounding the aperture, a surface of the portion of the mesh abutting the outer textured surface surrounding the aperture. A method includes disposing a mesh in a mold shaped for forming the plastic item, a portion of the mesh being disposed on portions of the mold having a textured surface surrounding at least a part of an aperture defining portion, the mesh being disposed in the mold over the aperture defining portion; and filling the mold with plastic, the mesh being molded in a textured surface of the plastic item formed by the textured surface of the mold.

Disclose are is method of manufacturing a ventilation sheet for a vehicle. The ventilation sheet for a vehicle is manufactured by performing anti-fouling finishing treatment using an anti-fouling coating agent including an anti-fouling composition. The anti-fouling properties can be improved to prevent the sheet from being fouled, and flame-retardant treatment is performed through a flame-retardant aqueous solution including flame-retardant PET fiber and flame retardant in bath so that the deterioration of flame retardancy caused by the improved anti-fouling properties can be prevented through the flame-retardant treatment while ventilation properties are maintained.

A bonded composite joint includes a first carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) panel; a second CFRP panel; a corrugated structure placed between the first and second CFRP panels; and an adhesive placed between the first and second CFRP panels and in contact with the corrugated structure. The corrugated structure has a shape defined by a given wavelength λ.

Techniques for inlaying a composite material within a tooling shell are disclosed. In one aspect, an additively manufactured tooling shell is provided, into which a composite material is inlaid and cured. A surface of the tooling shell is provided with indentations or another mechanism to enable adherence between the composite material and the tooling shell. The resulting integrated structure is used as a component in a transport structure.

The present disclosure provides reinforced hydrogel structures, methods of reinforcing hydrogel structures, and methods of treating ischemic disorders using the reinforced hydrogel structures.

A flexible mat forming system may include an elongate, rotatable drum having a plurality of transverse rows of mold cavities about an outer periphery thereof, an elongate hopper positioned adjacent the drum, the hopper shaped to receive a hardenable paste and deposit the hardenable paste along a facing row of the plurality of transverse rows of mold cavities, a spool assembly for feeding a sheet of mesh material between the hopper and the facing row, and a retaining plate extending partially about the outer periphery of the drum and positioned on a downstream side of the elongate hopper, the retaining plate spaced sufficiently close to the outer periphery to retain the mesh material against the outer periphery of the drum and the hardenable paste within the mold cavities adjacent the retaining plate.

A reinforcing article (10, 100, 200) includes a porous substrate layer (105, 205) and a plurality of parallel first continuous fiber elements (12, 114, 212) spaced apart from each other and extending along a first direction and fixed to the porous substrate (105, 205). Each first continuous fiber element (12, 114, 212) includes a plurality of parallel and co-extending continuous fibers (22, 122, 222) embedded in a thermoplastic resin (24, 124, 224).

A method for fabricating a vehicle interior trim having a support (4) and a surface covering (6) that covers the support (4), the covering having a front face (6A) intended to be visible and a rear face (6B) turned toward the support (4). The method includes producing a line of weakness (14) in the covering (6), bending the covering (6) along the line of weakness (14), and molding the support (4) against the rear face (6B) of the covering (6).
