A new study has found that, for most of us, the fiber we eat can protect our heart health, lowering the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease or stroke by up to 20%. It’s more evidence showing that a healthy gut leads to a healthy heart.Continue ReadingCategory: Heart Disease, Illnesses and conditions, Body & MindTags: Fiber, Cardiovascular, Heart Disease, Blood Pressure, Strokes, Monash
Before getting its blade-like 1000 portable electric outboard to the American market, Temo announced its official US presence with another mobile e-outboard system. The Temo 450 Carbon carries like a canoe paddle, but instead of manual muscle power, it tasks an integrated propeller drive with delivering up to 200 watts of propulsive power.Continue ReadingCategory: Marine, TransportTags: Outboard
When crude oil is processed, a lot of grungy byproducts are left over. A new study indicates that a couple of those substances can be used to make low-cost carbon fibers, which could in turn find use in less costly carbon fiber composites.Continue ReadingCategory: Environment, ScienceTags: KAUST, Carbon Fiber, Oil
While some ebikes just stick to being bikes with motors, others really lean into the electronic bells and whistles. With features such as a camera, lights and a power bank, the carbon fiber Infini X1 definitely falls into the latter pack.Continue ReadingCategory: Bicycles, TransportTags: ebikes, Carbon+Fibre, Cycling, Kickstarter
On January 10th, the world's first carbon fiber subway train – called the Cetrovo 1.0 Carbon Star Rapid Rail – took to the tracks for the very first time in Qingdao, China. It is promised to be stronger, safer, and produce less harmful emissions than traditional trains.Continue ReadingCategory: TransportTags: Trains, China, public transportation, Carbon Fiber, World's First

When it comes to technologies used only by humans, you might think that fiber optics would rank right up there. Such is apparently not the case, however, as scientists have discovered that a certain clam uses "fiber optics" of its own to get food.Continue ReadingCategory: ScienceTags: Duke University, Stanford University, Fiber Optic, Sunlight
from every body panel, including the doors, to the interiors, the flagship car employs carbon fiber to make the model as lightweight as possible. The post theon design restores porsche 964 carrera as ‘R’ car with carbon fiber throughout the vehicle appeared first on designboom | architecture & design magazine.
Rocket Lab is making innovative strides in space travel with the Neutron medium payload rocket – namely, it's the largest composite rocket ever made. Initially, hundreds of layers and thousands of square feet of carbon fiber were laid onto a mold by hand, taking a large team several weeks to complete.Continue ReadingCategory: Manufacturing, TechnologyTags: Carbon Fiber, Rocket Lab, Neutron Genera
Building on the trailblazing carbon-fiber-as-a-battery work started at Sweden's Chalmers University of Technology, deep-tech startup Sinonus is working to commercialize a groundbreaking new breed of multifunctional carbon fiber. In its vision, the wonder-composite will save weight not merely because of its famously low base weight but because it will double as a set of energy-managing electrodes,
