Thermoplastic Composites

As thermoplastic composite materials increasingly replace metal in many applications, says Ning, there remains a dearth of basic information about them. He summarizes the principles and applications to raise the interest of students and engineers and get them started in the field. His topics are constituents of thermoplastic composites, continuous and discontinuous fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites, the processing of thermoplastic composites, additive manufacturing of thermoplastic composites, characterization, micro-mechanics and macro-mechanics, and recycling.
