Composite Interfaces


Description:
This session invites contributions dealing with interfaces of composite materials. Interfaces between the matrix and fillers are critical in composite materials as interfaces largely determine properties of composites materials. Novel characterization techniques and analytical methods, including chemical and electron spectroscopy and microscopy, are welcome. Studies on unique properties arising from interface and modeling on interfaces are also encouraged to submit. The pioneering applications to utilize the composite interfaces in different fields are particularly invited to present.
