Polymer Matrix-Based High-Performance Thermoplastic Composites for Automotive Applications: Design, Characterization, and Interface BehaviorBy G. Nagaraj, Ganesh M. Agnihotri, Deepika Singh Singraur, Sandeep Bansal, Varinder Singh, A. Anandhan
Abstract: The study emphasizes the role of high-performance thermoplastic polymer matrices such as PEEK, PPS, and PA6, selected for their superior thermal stability, mechanical strength, and recyclability in automotive environments. The expanded usage of electric vehicles (EVs) and self-driving transportation creates a demand for advanced materials which are weight-conscious yet high in strength relative to their weight, impact-resistant yet still being environmentally friendly. This study aims to create and define fiber-reinforced …

Design and Characterization of High-Performance Polymer Nanocomposites for Aerospace ApplicationsBy Manvi Sharma, D. Veerabhadra Babu, Mamta Gour, A. Anandhan, Sanjeev Kumar, Joshila Grace L. K.
Abstract: Polymer nanocomposites have revolutionized aerospace materials through mechanical strength, thermal stability, and lightness. A number of polymer matrices filled with nanofillers such as carbon nanotubes, graphene, and nanoclay considerably improved structural integrity, flame resistance, and environmental adaptability. However, fabrication techniques are still being optimized so that nanofillers are properly dispersed throughout, which may create contradictions between mechanical strength and process ability. This work tries to design and characterize high- performance …
