Probing the Microscopic Origin of Toughness in Multiple Polymer Networks
Nicholas H. P. Orr, Magali Le Goff, Burebi Yiming +6
Multiple polymer networks, such as double-network elastomers comprising a sacrificial and a matrix network, exhibit exceptional mechanical resilience, commonly attributed to the fo…
Wear in multiple network elastomers arises from the continuous accumulation of molecular damage rather than microcrack growth
Ombeline Taisne, Julien Caillard, Côme Thillaye du Boullay +3
Tire wear releases millions of tons of particles annually, bearing immense industrial and environmental impact. However, efforts to mitigate the wear of elastomeric materials remai…
Multispeckle diffusing wave spectroscopy as a tool to study heterogeneous mechanical behavior in soft solids
Jianzhu Ju, Luca Cipelletti, Stephan Zoellner +2
Multiple speckle diffusing wave spectroscopy (MSDWS) can be applied to measure spatially heterogeneous mechanical behavior in soft solids, with high sensitivity to deformation and…
Strain induced strengthening of soft thermoplastic polyurethanes under cyclic deformation
Giorgia Scetta, Jianzhu Ju, Nathan Selles +3
We investigate the cyclic mechanical behavior in uniaxial tension of three different commercial thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers (TPU) often considered as a sustainable replac…
3D Fluorescent Mapping of Invisible Molecular Damage after Cavi-tation in Hydrogen Exposed Elastomers
Xavier P. Morelle, Gabriel E. Sanoja, Sylvie Castagnet +1
Elastomers saturated with gas at high pressure suffer from cavity nucleation, inflation, and deflation upon rapid or explosive de-compression. Although this process often results i…
Quantifying and mapping covalent bond scission during elastomer fracture
Juliette Slootman, Victoria Waltz, C. Joshua Yeh +4
Many new soft but tough rubbery materials have been recently discovered and new applications such as flexible prosthetics, stretchable electrodes or soft robotics continuously emer…
