Submicron inorganic particles as an additional filler in hybrid epoxy matrix composites reinforced with glass fibres

Abstract

In this study, the effect of selected submicron metal oxide (zinc oxide, titanium oxide) or non-metal oxide (silicon dioxide) particles on mechanical and thermo-mechanical properties of epoxy/glass composites was investigated. The applied epoxy resin was a diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A cured with triethylenetetramine. As a reinforcement twill weave E-glass fabric was used. Hybrid composites (contained particulate and fibrous filler) were fabricated by using the hand lay-up method and the average content of glass fibres was 39–41 wt%. Flexural properties, thermo-mechanical properties, abrasion resistance and hardness were determined for each group of the prepared hybrid epoxy/glass composites. The obtained results were compared with control samples (without submicron particles). Investigations showed that the addition of 2 wt% SiO2, 4 wt% TiO2 or 4 wt% ZnO to epoxy resin improved the flexural strength and the flexural modulus of composites. Dynamic mechanical analysis showed that the addition of the mentioned particles enhanced storage and loss modulus. It can be attributed to the good dispersion and good interaction between submicron-mentioned particles and the epoxy matrix.
