NAWAH-Stitch: Architectured Nanomaterials empowering Next-Generation and Smart Composites
NAWAH-Stitch products offer solutions to composites manufacturers seeking to enhance mechanical, electrical and thermal properties to fiber reinforced plastics without altering the part design and manufacturing process.
Interlaminar toughening for Fiber Reinforced Plastics (FRP)
By incorporating NAWAH-Stitch between composite layers, toughness and impact resistance is improved, propagation of micro-cracking is delayed, delamination is reduced and service life is prolonged.
Additionally, the use of NAWAH-Stitch enables composite parts to be functionalized for advanced applications.
NAWAH-Stitch on Resin Film – NS Film 0101
NAWAH-Stitch film implements Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanotubes right where they are the most efficient to bring additional mechanical, thermal or electrical performances to composite pieces.
By bridging the inter-ply region,carbon nanotubes prevent cracks from propagating, reducing the risk of delamination.
Connecting plies together, they furthermore enhance electrical and thermal conductivities.
