The fibres are "immersed" in a polymer matrix and the cracks typically appear at the polymer/fibre interface. I'm endlessly fascinated by the ability we have to see matter evolving at such a small scale - truly a microscopy tour de force.

And this shows one of the timelapse images from the paper - can you see the tiny cracks forming as the temperature goes down? The circles on the image are cross-sections of carbon fibres, of diameter of around 5 micrometers - that's smaller than human hairs!

Understanding how and why tiny cracks form in composite materials will help engineers improve cryogenic composite designs—making them safer and more reliable for future applications in cold environments, such as in the growing fields of sustainable aviation and hydrogen storage.

@bp_plc That’s really shameful. “Too fast and too far” in sustainable technologies must be the stupidest argument for short term greed.

This work led by talented PhD student Stella (Yuxing) Wang at @bristolchem shows that polymers of intrinsic microporosity, known for uses in separation processes or water purification, are also excellent at absorbing light, which will make them useful in many new applications.
