Growing Nano-SiO<sub>2</sub> on the Surface of Aramid Fibers Assisted by Supercritical CO<sub>2</sub> to Enhance the Thermal Stability, Interfacial Shear Strength, and UV Resistance

Aramid fibers (AFs) with their high Young&#8242;s modulus and tenacity are easy to degrade seriously with ultraviolet (UV) radiation that leads to reduction in their performance, causing premature failure and limiting their outdoor end use. Herein, we report a method to synthesize nano-SiO<su...
