TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that simply impregnating carbon fibers with aryl diazonium salts and subjecting them to external stimuli, such as mild heating (100°C), can induce surface modification which can deliver improvements of up to 150% in interfacial shear strength (IFSS) in epoxy resins.

TL;DR: Colored and color-changing materials are central to perception and interaction in nature and have been exploited in an array of modern technologies such as sensors, visual displays, and smart mater...

TL;DR: In this paper, the V-notch shear test was used to measure the interfacial shear strength (IFSS) of a two-component polymethyl methacrylate resins.

TL;DR: In this paper, a review on the use of molecular dynamics to design complementary interfaces for the next generation of composites is presented. But the design of molecular interactions at the interface is exceedingly difficult to determine and design, and thus, the authors conclude this review with a section on using molecular dynamics for the design complementary interface for next generation composites.

TL;DR: In this paper, carbon fibers were fed into a twin-screw extruder as continuous fibers and incorporated into PA6 for the production of carbon fibers and the tensile and flexural properties were determined.
