Why isn't carbon fiber used to make footballll helmets even thought it is stronger and lighter than polycarbonate the standard material for footballll helmet shells?
Carbon fiber is a lighter and stronger material to use and would theoretically be an ideal material to use for a football helmet. The problem is that carbon fiber has poor impact resistance. The University and Oregon University worked on a project to make a complete uniform out of carbon fiber. Article below. http://www.carbonfiberguru.com/2010/01/23/oregons-carbon-fiber-footbal-helmets/
How do you cast FRP with stainless steel?
You don't. The temperature to cast any steels would melt any fiber glass fiber. Straight Carbon wouldn't melt but a steel with extra carbon in it may be stronger but it would be be more brittle. You could get the same effect from heat treating. Steel doesn't have extra carbon in it for a reason. Especially stainless steels
