An investigation of hole quality during drilling of carbon fibre reinforced plastic and titanium (Ti6Al4V) using tungsten carbide drills by Dahnel, Aishah Najiah, Ascroft, Helen, Barnes, Stuart

“…The drilling trials were conducted through CFRP/Ti stacks, CFRP-only and Ti-only using carbide drills (6.1 mm diameter) at a cutting speed of 50 m/min and a feed rate of 0.05 mm/rev. The quality of the drilled holes was evaluated with respect to the hole diameters, delamination and pull-out of CFRP as well as Ti burr. …”

Effect of sugar palm fibers on the properties of blended wheat starch/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) -based biocomposite films by A.B.A. Mohammed, Abdulrahman, Hasan, Zaimah, A. Borhana Omran, Abdoulhdi, M. Elfaghi, Abdulhafid, Hassan Ali, Yasir, A.A. Akeel, Norie, Ilyas, R.A., Sapuan, S.M.

“…It has been found that reinforcing plasticized starch/PVA matrix with palm fibers has considerably enhanced physical properties, the density of the polymer declined to 1.21 g/cm3 with untreated fibers and to 1.32 g/cm3 with treated fibers, which created a lighter weight bioplastic, and a reduction occurred in water absorption (for example 3% of treated fiber showed 143% absorbed water after 30 min immersing in water) and water solubility. When compared to the films without fibers filler, films reinforced with fibers demonstrated a c3onsiderable improvement in the crystal profile; at 9% fiber load, it improved over double. …”
