Alfaraj of NextSet Materials","description":"On this episode,&amp;nbsp;Dr. Yasmeen S. Alfaraj&amp;nbsp;discusses the next generation of thermoset composites. She is the founder and CEO of&amp;nbsp;NextSet Materials, a company developing a new generation of reprocessable thermoset materials.&amp;nbsp;Through&amp;nbsp;NextSet Materials, Yasmeen is addressing one of the composites industry\u2019s most persistent challenges: how to recover valuable fibers and other materials from durable thermoset structures that were never designed to be taken apart. The company\u2019s technology incorporates cleavable additives into existing resin formulations, creating a controlled pathway for deconstructing the cured polymer and recovering materials for reuse\u2014without requiring manufacturers to completely replace their established processes. We\u2019ll be discussing the chemistry behind this technology, its potential applications in aerospace, wind energy, automotive manufacturing and electronics, and what it could mean for the future of truly circular composite materials.
