This research reveals the fracture mechanism and structural heterogeneity in rubber reinforced with nanofillers, suggesting new insights.
Rubber Fracture Mechanism In article number 10.1002/sstr.202500257, Hiroki Ogawa and co-workers investigate the structural heterogeneity and fracture mechanism in filler-reinforced rubber using synchrotron X-ray CT. This image highlights the structural heterogeneity and fracture mechanism of a filler-reinforced rubber material. It emphasizes the alignment of fillers and molecular chains before cavity initiation, as well as chain exfoliation under shear stress.
