Improving the strength and toughness of macroscale double networks by exploiting Poisson’s ratio mismatch
Abstract We propose a new concept that utilizes the difference in Poisson's ratio between component materials as a strengthening mechanism that increases the effectiveness of the sacrificial bond toughening mechanism in macroscale double-network (Macro-DN) materials. These Macro-DN composites c...
