Effect of ethylene vinyl acetate foam-graphene composite material on the mechanical properties of sports footwear

Ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) foam is widely used as midsole material in athletic footwear due to its lightweight and cushioning properties. However, EVA foam suffers from low mechanical strength, abrasion resistance, and fatigue resistance. Reinforcing EVA foam with graphene nanoplatelets is a promi...
