Rivet-Inspired Modification of Aramid Fiber by Decorating with Silica Particles to Enhance the Interfacial Interaction and Mechanical Properties of Rubber Composites

A rivet–inspired method of decorating aramid fiber (AF) with silica particles (SiO<sub>2</sub>) is proposed to produce SiO<sub>2</sub>@AF hybrid materials that have largely enhanced interfacial interaction with the rubber matrix. AF was firstly surface-modified with polyacryl...
