Influence of montmorillonite clay on the thermal and mechanical properties of conventional carbon fiber reinforced composites (original) (raw)

Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 2007

Abstract

In the present investigation, DMA and flexural tests were performed on unfilled, 1wt.%, 2wt.%, 3wt.% and 4wt.% clay filled SC-15 epoxy to identify the loading effect on thermal and mechanical properties of the matrix. Thermal and mechanical test results indicated that 2.0wt% clay/epoxy systems showed the highest improvement in the storage modulus and flexural strength. After that, the nanophased matrix
