Thin metal patch to FRP propeller: Experimental testing of bonding systems

To enable the use of carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) propellers for merchant vessels, the problem of cavitation must be solved. The matrix of the FRP is generally brittle and more sensitive to cavitation erosion than the more conventional metal propeller blades. Nakashima Propeller Co. wants t...
