Engineered Interfaces and Interphases in Nanocomposites: From Nanoscale Design to Multifunctional Performance
Journal: Nanocomposites
Interfaces and interphases play a critical role in determining the mechanical and functional performance of nanocomposites. Rather than acting simply as boundaries between constituent materials, interphases can develop distinct chemical, structural and mechanical characteristics that influence stress transfer, damage initiation, fracture behaviour and functional response. Recent advances in nanomaterials and surface…
