In this study, we prepared the 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) functionalized MWNTs/epoxy composites by electron beam (EB) irradiation process. The modified MWNTs were characterized with SEM-EDS and FTIR. The gel content and conversion rate of epoxide groups of the EB cured pure epoxy resin and the APTES functionalized MWNTs/epoxy composites were measured and discussed. And the mechanical properties of the EB cured composites were also characterized. With addition of 0.25wt% APTES functionalized MWNTs, the Vicker’s hardness of the EB cured composite increased 100.02% compared with pure epoxy.

The aim of this paper is to study the effect of volume fraction on mechanical and physical properties such as tensile, flexural, impact, interlaminar shear strength, void content and water absorption of flax and bamboo fibers reinforced hybrid epoxy composites. Flax and bamboo fibers reinforced epoxy resin matrix hybrid composites have been fabricated by compression molding techniques. The hybrid composites were fabricated with different volume fraction of fibers. SEM analysis on the hybrid composite materials was performed to analyze the bonding behavior of materials and internal structure of the fractured surfaces. The effect of chemical treatment of flax and bamboo fibers was verified by FTIR analysis. The results showed that the tensile, impact, flexural and ILSS are maximum for 40:0 (flax: bamboo) hybrid composites. The void content decreased for 20:20 (flax:bamboo) composites due to tightly packed flax fiber and more compatibility towards epoxy resin.

This study investigates the electrical conductivity and micro hardness of synthetic and natural graphite epoxy composite. Graphite used on this study is synthetic graphite (SG) and natural graphite (NG) with particle size 44m and 30m, respectively. Different graphite concentrations (50 ~ 80 wt.%) were added into the epoxy resin. The dispersion of graphite in epoxy resin was conducted by high speed mixer through mechanical shearing mechanism, its graphite epoxy suspension was poured into the mold and compression molding was conducted for fabrication of graphite epoxy composites. Electrical conductivity was measured by the four point probe. Microscopic analyses conducted on fracture surface use scanning electron microscopic. Results reveal that non conductive epoxy polymer becomes conductor as addition of graphite. Electrical conductivity of NG higher than SG at the same weight percentage (Wt. %) of conducting filler loading. The highest loading concentration, it exhibited values 12.6 S/cm and 7 S/cm at (80 Wt. %). Hardness property of epoxy composites of both type of graphite increase continuously and reached peak at 60 wt% for NG and 70 wt % for SG, while more addition decreased it.

AbstractThe aim of this research was to study the feasibility of using wheat straw fiber with epoxy resin for developing natural fiber-polymer composites. For this purpose, the epoxy resin was reinforced with 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 wt.% of the wheat straw fiber with the help of the hand lay-up technique. Further, in order to improve the composite characteristic, wheat straw fibers were treated with three different concentrations of alkali (1%, 3%, and 5%). The mechanical and water absorption properties of the treated fiber composites were characterized and compared with those of untreated fiber-filled epoxy composites. It was observed that the mechanical properties and water resistance were reduced with the increase in wheat straw fiber loading from 5 to 25 wt.%. Among the three levels of alkali treatment, the composite made with 3% alkali-treated fiber exhibited superior mechanical properties than the other untreated and treated fiber composites, which pointed to an efficient fiber-matrix adhesion. The scanning electron microscope was used to observe the surface features of the wheat straw fiber.

Good For

Carbon fiber powder (CFP) instead of the traditional glass fiber (cloth) was used to reinforce epoxy resin for rapid tooling. There are two obvious advantages: one is to utilize the waste materials, which is good for the protection of the environment; another is to simplify the producing process by cast molding. The filling amount and dispersing process of CFP was studied in this paper. The results show that when the amount of CFP was 10 wt%, and the ultrasonic time is more than 15 min, the CFP can be dispersed in the epoxy matrix uniformly, and the mechanical properties can meet the requirement of epoxy molding.
