Evaluation of the Mechanic and Electrochemical Properties of an Epoxy Coating with Addition of Different Polyhedral Oligomeric Silsesquioxanes (POSS) Applied on Substrate of Low Alloy Steel
Abstract:The epoxy resin is one of the matrices most employed in obtaining composites and coatings. Its properties have been modified using materials such as clays and polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes -POSS. The use of POSS in the preparation of thermosetting nanocomposites has been studied in obtaining hybrid materials with higher mechanic and surface properties. The functionality of POSS cage is important, since a thermosetting is formed by a cross-linked structure that can interact at any direction, forming bon… Show more
