Multiscale characterization of the interfacial region in flexible rubber composites: Initial structure and evolution upon thermal treatment

To investigate the structural changes upon thermal treatment of resorcinol–formaldehyde–latex (RFL) interfacial layer in a rubber-cord flexible composite, a multiscale approach was employed. High-resolution AFM mapping showed a significant increase in the modulus of the (RF) phase from 1.2 GPa to 2....
