[edit] WE ARE LOOKING FOR MIL-PRF-46103

Some information on manufacturing techniques of GRP would be useful.

[edit] Young's Modulus?

Does anyone know the young modulous or ultimate tensile strength values of GRP? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.5.210.103 (talk • contribs) .

my materials charts give E as 60 GPa Fegor 00:57, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

There is no general answer as this depends on many factors, including resin system used, type of textile reiforcement (CSM, woven, UD, level of crimp in the fibres etc etc etc....) Sorry!

[edit] GRP

It would be helpful to know the mechanical principles of GRPs. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.47.161.206 (talk • contribs) .

Done! Read it and change as you see fit.

[edit] INQUIRY

IS GRP / PP APPLICABLE IN MONO CHOLORO BANZE ?

[edit] Merging "fibre-reinforced plastic" into "glass-reinforced plastic"?

Do not merge: GRPs are only one kind of FRP, thus FRP should remain at least as a sort of disambiguation article.--Vierzehn (talk) 19:50, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

There are further recent comments on talk:glass reinforced plastic.--Vierzehn (talk) 18:27, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

I don't know about this merge. If anything, wouldn't glass reinforced plastics be a sub-category of fiber-reinforced plastics?Elliott Shultz (talk) 19:50, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

That is what I wanted to express. I have removed the merge-tag. It would be nice, if both articles would be improved. However, merging would not improve them, especially if the merge would be performed in the suggested direction.--Vierzehn (talk) 09:25, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Absolutely. I'm going to snuffle around these (and a few other related) to see if they can't be filled out and cross-referenced more effectively. If you've got any suggestions as to what angle to attack this, let me know!Elliott Shultz (talk) 20:45, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
