Abstract:

 In this paper,molecular mechanics based computation is performed on Kevlar fibre reinforced PPS composites to evaluate their interfacial systems' energies,thereby microscopic mechanism involved in interface rein- forcement in case of Kevlar fibre being treated chemically on the surface is revealed.

Key words: molecular modelling/molecular simulation, molecular mechanics, Kevlar fibre, PPS
