摘要
The morphology of PPTA pulp is investigated by means of optical microscope and scanningelectron microscope (SEM). It shows that PPTA pulp has feather-like branch, needle point-likeend, and irregular cross-section, which are very important for PPTA pulp as a reinforcer. Theseparation limitation of PPTA pulp is also investigated from both torn and brittle break cross-sec-tion. A packing mechanism is proposed to illustrate the microfibril packing in the gel system.
