Decoupling Rigidity and Toughness in Densely Crosslinked Epoxy Networks via Polar Filling and Topological Interlocking
Axial compressive failure, primarily initiated by fiber microbuckling, severely limits the advanced structural applications of carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites. While compressive stiffness in the polymer matrix remains essential to provide robust lateral support, traditional highly cross-linked rigid...
