Effect of Nanoparticles on E-Glass Fiber Epoxy Resin Composites
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
In the present work fabrication of composite material(E-Glass Fiber Epoxy Resin + NANO CaCO3) was carried out and their tensile properties viz tensile strength, tensile strain(%),young's modulus, energy at maximum load and brihnall hardness number were found. Specimens of E-Glass Fiber Epoxy Resin) hybrid composites are prepared with four different compositions of nano-calcium carbonate (CaCO3), viz., 0,3,5 and 7%.Each specimen consisting of 40%GF. The specimens are prepared by hand lay up method.. Tests are conducted on these specimens to determine the tensile strength, tensile strain, young's modulus energy at maximum load and hardness number at room temperature using universal testing machine and Brihnell hardness testing machine. The influence of the nano-CaCO3 content on the mechanical properties tensile of hybrid composites was studied. It is found that the reinforcing and toughening effects of the E-Glass epoxy hybrid composites are increased by adding nano-CaCO3.The tensile strength, tensile strain, young’s modulus and energy at max load of these composites increased nonlinearly with the addition of the nano-CaCO3
