Among carbon fillers, carbon fiber is considered to be an ideal reinforcement for epoxy
because of its outstanding electrical, mechanical, and thermal features. Several inorganic …

This study investigated the effects of incorporation of two different shapes functionalization
fullerene C60 (FC60) and functionalization graphene (FG), into the polymer matrix on the …

Improving the wear resistance of ultra‐high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), the
gold standard polymer for acetabular component in hip joint arthroplasty, is the most …

A series of epoxy resin (EP) composite coatings reinforced with functionalized cubic boron
nitride (FC-BN) and functionalized hexagonal boron nitride (FH-BN) were fabricated …

For biologically inspired dry adhesives, the fibrillar structure of the surface requires sufficient
flexibility to form contacts and meanwhile high rigidity to maintain stability. This fundamental …

Interfacial transition zones (ITZs) of cementitious concrete are highly heterogeneous, which
cause many challenges in accurately obtaining their properties. In this paper, regular …

A series of high solid content (30 wt%) epoxy resin (EP) composite coatings reinforced with
differently sized cubic boron nitride (CBN) particles were fabricated successfully on 304L …

When subjected to wear by metal surfaces, epoxy normally exhibits rather high frictional
coefficients (COF), causing high wear rate, exacerbated noise and frictional heat, thus …

Stimuli-responsive micro/nanostructures that exhibit not only programmable but also
reprogrammable actuation behaviors are highly desirable for various advanced engineering …

Epoxy resin (EP) composite coatings enhanced with hexagonal boron nitride (HBN) nano-
sheets, TiO 2 particles and HBN-TiO 2 hybrid material were fabricated successfully on the …
