DOI: 10.1002/app.44763
Abstract: This work investigates mechanical properties of styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) composites incorporating magadiite (MGD), a synthetic layered silicate (Na2Si14O29·9H2O) with surface chemistry similar to precipitated silica used in tire tread formulations. Treatment with cetyltrimethylammonium (CTA+) expands… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10853-018-2860-9
Abstract: Cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) incorporation in polymeric matrices is an environmentally friendly approach to mechanical reinforcement. In general, significant mechanical reinforcement can only be achieved by means of good CNC dispersion at random orientation. These primary… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.istruc.2017.08.007
Abstract: Abstract Mechanical reinforcement couplers can offer considerable constructional and economic advantages in comparison with conventional methods of lap splicing, particularly when the requirements for seismic detailing exacerbates reinforcement congestion problems. However, the lack of specific… read more here.
