The effect of type of nanoparticles on morphology, thermal and mechanical properties of epoxy-nanoparticulate composite adhesive produced via ultrasonic vibration process has been investigated. The morphology, thermal and mechanical properties of epoxy-nanoparticulate composite adhesive was measured with FESEM/AFM, DTA/TGA, and Hounsfield respectively. The FESEM/AFM images of the epoxy-nanoparticulate composite adhesive reveals significantly fine dispersion of nanoparticles. The incorporation TiO2 nanoparticles in epoxy adhesive results in improved glass transition temperature (Tg), thermal stability and tensile properties of the nanocomposite. But, the incorporation of comparatively finer size Al2O3 nanoparticles leads to decrease in the Tg, thermal stability and tensile properties of the nanocomposite.

Several partially bio-based polyimides have been successfully synthesized by polycondensation between bis(4-aminophenyl)isohexides with various commercial dianhydrides. Flexible and free-standing films were readily obtained from their poly(amic acid) or polyimide solutions. A systematic investigation of the structure–property relationship of polyimides highlights the significant impact of the isohexides moieties on their physical and mechanical properties (glass transition temperature, inherent viscosity, thermal stability, solubility, and mechanical properties). The results revealed that these polyimides exhibited comparable thermal stability and mechanical properties to those of petrochemical-based ones.

AbstractTwo Zr-base bulk metallic glasses were investigated in the present work. DSC experiments were performed at different heating rates (dT/dt). Evolution of the characteristic temperatures, glass transition and onset of crystallisation, were determined as a function of dT/dt. Evolution of shear elastic modulus and internal friction are measured as a function of temperature and resulting microstructural evolution; these evolutions are related to variation of the atomic mobility.

ABSTRACTWe have studied some of the physical and mechanical properties of cyclized polybutadiene (CBR) dielectrics by dynamic mechanical analysis, thermal mechanical analysis, thermogravimetry, infrared analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry. Of interest is the difference in properties between thin (<30 μm) films which have been cured under vacuum and those which have been cured in air. Our results indicate that curing under vacuum prevents oxidation and reduces crosslinking. Vacuum cured films have 20% smaller moduli and 200 lower glass transition temperature than do films produced in air.

The effect of reactive (polyethylene glycol) and non-reactive (toluene) diluents on thermal and mechanical properties (tensile strength, hardness and fracture toughness) of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A epoxy resin (cured by triethylenetetramine) was investigated. The thermal stability and mechanical properties of the epoxy resin modified with reactive and non-reactive diluents at different wt% were investigated using thermo-gravimetric analyser, tensile test, hardness test and single-edge-notched bend test. A minor variation in thermal stability was observed for epoxy resin after addition of polyethylene glycol and toluene at 0.5 wt%; however, further addition of reactive and non-reactive diluents diminished the thermal stability. The addition of 10 wt% of polyethylene glycol in epoxy resin significantly enhances the tensile strength (∼12%), hardness (∼14%) and fracture toughness (∼24%) when compared to that of neat epoxy resin. In contrast, major drop in mechanical performance was observed after addition of toluene in epoxy. Furthermore, fracture surfaces were investigated under field emission scanning electron microscope to elucidate the failure mechanism.

In this work, A357/0.5 wt.% SiC nanocomposites were fabricated with a combination of ultrasonic processing and a nanoparticle feeding mechanism that involves the introduction of a closed end aluminium tube filled with the ball-milled SiC nanoparticles (20–30 nm) and aluminium powders (<75 µm) into the melt for complete deagglomeration and uniform dispersion of nanoparticles through the matrix. The microstructural and mechanical properties of the fabricated nanocomposites were investigated. The microstructural studies conducted with optical and advanced electron microscopes indicate that relatively effective deagglomeration and uniform dispersion of SiC nanoparticles into the molten alloy were achieved. The hardness and tensile properties of the nanocomposites were notably improved compared to those of the ultrasonically processed A357 alloy without reinforcement, showing the strengthening potency of nanoparticles and the good bonding obtained at the particle-reinforcement interface.
