Dr Michael Ford MIMMM at Haseltine Lake Kempner explores a patent relating to rubber tyres using recycled carbon black.

The SEPRG was dissolved in a ceremony in London on 24 September in the presence of current Chairman Dr Richard Skipper CEng FIMMM.

Papers include a look at hybrid brake pad composites, Polylactic acid nanocomposites for biomedical applications and natural rubber composites for EMI shielding.

The property enhancing capabilities of nanoplatelets and nanocomposites are considered.

Composite decomposition mechanisms, flame behaviour of polymer composites used in cables, and synthesis, characterisation and pseudocapacitance performance of a nanocomposite.

Rubber modified asphalt incorporates recycled end-of-life car tyres.

With papers considering Preparation and interfacial properties of functionalised graphene oxide modified carbon fibre/epoxy resin matrix composites, a Comparative study on the impact response of polypropylene and epoxy matrix composites with respect to the plate thickness, and runner reservoir effect on optical properties of small high-precision plastic injection moulded parts.

This issue looks at fibres, thermal degradation and humidity diffusion.

Featuring nanocomposites, reduction of fire hazards and scarf patch repair.
