Does Filling Glass Fiber to Polypropylene Make It Brittle?
2025-01-03
Filling glass fiber (GF) to polypropylene (PP) is a common reinforcement method aimed at improving the material's mechanical properties, such as rigidity, strength, and heat resistance. However, the addition of glass fiber can indeed affect the material's toughness and fracture behavior, potentially making it more brittle.

Automotive Interior Odors: An Unavoidable Challenge for Material Engineers
2025-07-10
Odor is both a sensory experience and a perceived measure of quality. In the confined space of a car cabin, the "new car smell" from plastics is not a symbol of luxury—instead, it often becomes a major source of consumer complaints. This article, grounded in engineering practice, systematically explores the sources, mechanisms, analytical methods, and controllable strategies related to odor. It ai...
