VN Composites

Overview:

VN COMPOSITES specialized in the design and manufac- -turing of technical composite parts,

and

NANOLEDGE
supplier of epoxy resins with carbon nanotubes share their expertise for the development of high performances composite materials for high tech markets.

Advantages:
The first tests, made on an Epoxy/Carbon UD composite show a significative improvement of following mechanical performances:
   Interlaminar cohesion
   Fissure propagation strength
   Failure strength
   Shock strength

Example Features:
Motor sports, aeronautics, space, defence, water sports and industry.

Overview:
A thermoplastic is a plastic that melts to a liquid when heated and freezes to a brittle, very glassy state when cooled sufficiently.
Thermoplastic polymers differ from thermosetting polymers as they can, unlike thermosetting polymers, be remelted and remoulded.

Advantages:
The transformation of these polymers depends on their cooling capacities that are faster than those of thermosetting ones or elastomers.
   Recyclability
   Easy to use
   Similarity of mechanical properties (epoxy)

Example Features:
Motor sports, aeronautics & industry.
