59 Characterization of Composites


Description:
This session welcomes papers that investigate structure-property relationships in composite materials that study the effect of structural features on mechanical, thermal, electrical, optical, and other physical properties. We especially seek contributions focusing on innovative characterization techniques that probe the multi-dimensional features of polymer composites. Interfacial phenomena are often key to composite properties and papers on the characterization of interfaces are highly encouraged.
