Seashell-filled epoxy tested as insulation around a thermoelectric cooler
A shell-waste filler in epoxy, aimed at a niche thermal job. The source gave no methods or scale, so there is no way to judge the result; for epoxy buyers there is nothing to act on yet.
Experimental Heat TransferIndustrial
Eggshell powder and alumina nanoparticles tested as epoxy fillers in lab
A small hand lay-up lab study of five epoxy hybrids, with no service or scale-up data. Treated eggshell filler is an interesting low-cost idea, but nothing to act on yet for anyone buying epoxy systems.

Lab study compares two initiators for curing filled orthophthalic polyester composites
A lab comparison of two radical initiators in orthophthalic polyester with glass fibre and titanium dioxide whiskers. Useful for moulders chasing cooler, slower cures in thick laminates, but nothing to act on yet without production-scale trials.
Materials Science ForumIndustrial
Recycled PET turned into resin and tested in carbon fibre composite
Recycled PET as a resin feedstock for carbon fibre parts is a neat idea, but the record gives no scale, methods or results to judge it by. One journal paper; nothing to act on yet.
International Journal of Polymer Analysis and CharacterizationIndustrial
Cobalt phytate coating on carbon fabric cuts epoxy composite fire risk
A lab-scale treatment of carbon fabric gave epoxy laminates better flame resistance and strength together. No production data or cost yet, so nothing to act on yet for aerospace or industrial carbon-epoxy specifications.

Flame-retardant hybrid epoxy laminates cut heat release in lab fire tests
Lab laminates of hybrid epoxy released far less heat in cone calorimeter tests, at one thickness and one heat flux. HB is a basic plastics rating, not a building fire class, so nothing to act on yet.

Hybrid glass and polypropylene epoxy laminates resist seawater better over 30 days
A single lab study of E-CR glass and polypropylene hybrid epoxy laminates, aged in seawater for 30 days. Promising for marine work, but a month is short and nothing here changes a specification today: nothing to act on yet.
