Aging has a serious impact on the properties of functional polymers. Therefore, it is
necessary to study the aging mechanism to prolong the service and storage life of polymer …

Recent advances in biomedicine largely rely on the development in nanoengineering. As
the access to unique properties in biomaterials is not readily available from traditional …

Environmentally friendly soybean meal-based (SM) adhesive has been developed to
replace harmful formaldehyde-based adhesives in the wood-based panel industry. But, the …

In structural materials research, lightweight composites for extreme environments are
currently a hot issue. Although the layered architectural carbon/carbon (C/C) composites …

Extended exposure to moisture could harm the carbon fiber/matrix interface, threatening
CFRP's reliability service. This paper introduces a method that develops molecular …

In this study, the interaction of epoxy resin with the glass fiber in the presence of monolayer
glycidoxypropyltrimethoxy silane is studied using molecular dynamics simulations. To …

Epoxy resin is a general term for a class of thermosetting polymers containing two or more
epoxy groups in the molecule and has an excellent comprehensive performance. The …

Using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, we develop strain-rate dependent Mode-I
cohesive traction laws for the glass fiber-epoxy interphase as a function of interphase …

In this study, the dynamic molecular structure changes in polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and
PTFE/graphene composites under compression were investigated. The critical formation …

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-silica interface commonly exists in adhesion system such as
wall-climbing robots. In order to develop PDMS materials with excellent adhesion properties …
