Strategic Objectives
• Master the atomic-level chemistry of sizing and surface treatments.
• Unlock the physics of adhesion to prevent delamination.
• Optimize the load transfer between fiber and polymer matrix.
• Engineer high-performance composites with precision-tuned interfaces.
The Core Challenge
Bulk material properties only tell half the story; without understanding the micromechanical interphase, composite structures are prone to unpredictable failure and efficiency loss.
