<table>Representative close-up images of side surface damage to the CNF modified samples (a) and of the control images (b). The CNF modified samples show multiple layer damage representing localized failure occurring through the cross-section of the samples primarily. The control samples show cross-sectional initial failure on a surface, followed by delamination through the midplane and final cross-sectional failure on the opposite surface.</table>
