SUMMARY:November 13\, 2023 Innovation Insights
DESCRIPTION:Our monthly webinar series “Innovation Insights” continued Monday\, November 13\, as IACMI EVP/CCO Dale Brosius\, moderated discussions on recent technology advancements. IACMI members and partners presented background on new technology\, products\, and the key advantages provided\, as well as application examples. \nWatch the recording \nWe heard from: \nKevin Line\nVP of Manufacturing\nRise Building Products \nRise Building Products – Recycling Fibers into Composite Building Materials \nRise has developed and patented a process to recycle polymer fibers into building materials.  During this briefing the process and value proposition for the product will be outlined. \nHaley Marie Keith\nCo-Founder\, CEO\nMITO Material Solutions \nAndrew Maxey\nFounder\, CEO\nVartega \nGraphene-sized Recycled Carbon Fiber Combining Strength and Sustainability without Compromising Performance \nMITO Materials and Vartega collaborated to develop Fenix Fiber+\, a groundbreaking graphene-sized carbon fiber product. This material greatly enhances interfacial adherence\, improving the mechanical performance of fiber-reinforced thermoplastics. Fenix Fiber+ is eco-friendly and durable\, made from recycled carbon fiber and graphene derived from wastestream greenhouse gases. Early studies show positive results including over 50% increase in impact resistance and flexibility. Learn about the development process and many applications of this 2023 CAMX Award winner. \nChristopher Oberste\nPresident and Chief Engineer\nWEAV3D Inc. \nRebar for Plastics: Enabling Cost Effective Body Structures \nIn partnership with Braskem\, Altair\, and the Clemson Composites Center\, an automotive door structure originally designed in carbon fiber/PA6 organosheet was redesigned utilizing WEAV3D’s Rebar for Plastics® design methodology\, which leverages various micro-and macro-mechanical concepts to maximize performance and minimize cost in hybrid length-scale composites. This highly optimized structure achieved 20% weight savings and 50% cost savings vs. the original organosheet\, while also reducing trim scrap mass by 63%.
