allgemeinResearchers aim to make soft, elastic material more tear-resistant
Soft materials like rubber or silicone tear easily under tensile stress. In a project funded by the European Research Council (ERC), researchers from Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg are looking for ways to make such materials more stable. In a current study, they have shown that it depends, at least partly, on how stable the crosslinked bonds are […]Soft materials like rubber or silicone tear easily under tensile stress.
