The main physical-mechanical and thermophysical characteristics of composite materials based on epoxy resin ED-20 and peroxide resin ED-20P (modified with tert-butyl hydroperoxide ED-20 of a molecular weight 480) in the ratio of 30 mass parts of ED-20P to 70 mass parts of ED- 20 and unsaturated oligoester TGM-3 were researched. Butyl methacrylate was used as the active diluent of epoxy-oligoester mixtures. The polyethylene polyamine was used as hardener in a steochemical ratio. For the comparison we studied compositions which did not contain ED-20P resin. The advantage of compositions included ED-20P modified resin has been shown.

Epoxy resins have been presenting a lot of scientific and technical interests and organic modified epoxy resins have recently receiving a great deal of attention. For obtaining the composite materials with good mechanical proprieties, a large variety of organic modification agents were used. For this study gluten and gelatin had been used as modifying agents thinking that their dispersion inside the polymer could increase the polymer biocompatibility. Equal amounts of the proteins were milled together and the obtained compound was used to form 1 to 5% weight ratios organic agents modified epoxy materials. To highlight the effect of these proteins in epoxy matrix mechanical tests as three-point bending and compression were performed.

The correlation between the structural network of a diglycidyl ether of the bisphenol-A (DGEBA) epoxy resin, modified by two distinct aliphatic amines (tetraethylenepentamine TEPA and jeffamine D230), and its mechanical properties, was investigated as possible matrix for abrasive composites applications. Both flexural tests, to determine the yield stress and the elastic modulus, as well as impact tests to determine the notch toughness, were performed. The DGEBA/D230 presented the highest stiffness and toughness but lowest yield stress. This epoxy network also displayed a greater plastic deformation during fracture.

Composites have tremendous applicability due to their excellent capabilities. The performance of composites mainly depends on the reinforcing material applied. A Graphene nanoparticle (GNP) is successful as an efficient reinforcing material due to its versatile as well as superior properties. Even at very low content, graphene can dramatically improve the properties of polymer and metal matrix composites. In this paper the effects of GNP on composites based on epoxy resin were analyzed. Different contents of GNP (0 – 4.5 vol. %) were added to the epoxy resin. The GNP/epoxy composite was fabricated under room temperature. Mechanical tests result such as tensile, flexural and hardness test show enhancements of the mechanical properties of the GNP/epoxy composite. The experimental results clearly show an improvement in Young’s modulus, tensile strength, and hardness as compared to pure epoxy. The results of this research are strong evidence for GNP/epoxy composites being a potential candidate for use in a variety of industrial applications, especially for automobile parts, aircraft components, and electronic parts such as super capacitors, transistors, etc.

We investigated the processes of water absorption, chemical stability and microhardness of films of epoxy composites that contained as the polymer matrix the epoxy resin UP-655 and mineral fillers: graphite, mica, aluminum oxide at their content (0 - 30 % mass). It found that introduction of mineral fillers significantly affects on all complex of operating characteristics of the films. Increase of filler content, especially mica, to 20 %, resulting in slower process and reducing the quantity of absorbed moisture by films. In the study of physical and mechanical properties of filled epoxy composites was established that the introduction of mineral filler significantly affects their microhardness, and the nature of the exposure is determined by the type and filler content.

Phenol novolac epoxy resin is a polymer matter which its properties can be modified for industrial needs. In this research, nanocomposites of phenol novolac epoxy resin and unsaturated polyester are made nano Bentonite and silica nanoparticles as filler. For this purpose, effect of nanoparticles percent on nanocomposite formation is studied and their physical, mechanical and thermal properties are obtained. The presence of unsaturated polyester in this process forms a cross-link capable of improving the physical and mechanical properties of epoxy resin. Fracture behavior was determined by a SEM device. Moreover, TGA, DSC, impact tests and bending test were applied for data analysis. When process ability is growing, moisture absorption decreases. Fracture toughness was also evaluated in a stoichiometric network. Physical and mechanical properties improve significantly with increasing nanoparticles. The most important reason for using this nanocomposite is its high resistance to corrosion.
