Characterization of the intrinsic strength between epoxy and silica using a multiscale approach

Organic-inorganic interfaces exist in many natural or synthetic materials, such as mineral-protein interfaces found in bone and epoxy-silica interfaces found in concrete construction. Here, we report a model to predict the intrinsic strength between organic and inorganic materials, based on a molecu...
