Are carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) bicycle frames poised for a “great reshoring” — the return of production to locales near the customer base — or will they continue to be fabricated and ...

Thermoplastic composites (TPC) are at the forefront of the revolution in materials and processes for the cycling industry, says Vincent Lemay, VP of R&D for Argon 18, a high-quality bike manufacturer ...

Lightweight yet strong and resistant to corrosion and weathering, carbon fiber–reinforced polymers (CFRPs) are used in aircraft, shipping containers, natural gas storage tanks, wind turbine blades, ...

Carbon fiber is one of the most impressive materials out there. It is stronger than steel, yet so lightweight that it's used in everything from airplanes and tough parts for supercars to high-end ...

FRPCs are composed of fibers such as glass, carbon, or natural fibers embedded in a polymer matrix, such as thermoplastics or thermosets. FRPCs provide several advantages more than conventional ...
