FRC3: Fiber Reinforced Composite, Fiber Reuse Characterization, Facilitating Reclamation and Collection
A machine-readable database of characterization data for high-performance fibers used in body armor, aerospace, and related composite applications. FRC3 consolidates datasets from multiple independent studies, spanning about 20 years of testing across para-aramid, ultra-high molar mass polyethylene, liquid crystal polyester, polyamide, carbon, cellulose, and polybenzobisoxazole fibers. Data include single-fiber tensile testing, yarn tensile testing, ballistic V50 results, molar-mass distribution measurements, and spectroscopic degradation tracking.
