2019 August - 7 articles

Cover Story: GO and MWNTs were uniformly dispersed in a PA66 matrix via the S3M process in order to reinforce the PA66 fibers. A higher strength of the composite fibers by means of melt spinning can be obtained in comparison with the pure PA66 fiber. View this paper.

We discuss the fabrication of hollow-core optical fibers made of borosilicate glass. We show that, despite the high attenuation of the glass relative to silica, the fiber optical losses can be of the same order of magnitude of those obtained by using...
