Scientists at Harvard University's John Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have recently made important breakthroughs in rubber reinforcement technology. They have developed a new multi-scale method that significantly increases the fatigue threshold of particle-reinforced rubber, allowing this material to withstand high loads while effectively resisting crack growth during repeated use. This innovation is not only expected to extend the service life of rubber products such as tires, but also plays a positive role in reducing environmental pollution caused by the use of rubber particles.
