Despite the drawbacks of the manufacturing process, the worldwide demands for the CFRP among composite materials would be expected to increase according to a number of independent sources [1,2].

Scientists have developed an innovative ‘liquid-phase carbonization’ method to recycle waste polyethylene terephthalate into ...

The synthesis of molybdenum carbide catalysts typically requires high temperature, leading to inevitable passivation in an oxygen-containing atmosphere. Developing a new route to produce molybdenum ...

Hydrothermal carbonization of lignocellulosic biomass—the most abundant renewable feedstock—is a promising method for the production of carbon materials with negative carbon emissions. This method has ...

Carbon fibers consist of thin filaments (5–10 micrometers in diameter) made of long chains of carbon atoms arranged in a polycrystalline structure. These fibers contain 92–100 wt% anisotropic carbon ...
