A semi‐empirical model of the influence of the size of micrometer fillers on the elastic properties of polymer‐matrix composites
Aleksandr Fedotov
Abstract:A semi‐empirical model of the influence of the size of micrometer fillers on the elastic moduli of polymer‐matrix composites is proposed. The modulus of elasticity of the composite is the sum of the modulus of elasticity at infinite filler size and an exponential function depending on filler size. The calculated dependencies contain two empirical parameters, and the model is identified based on the results of an experiment with two filler sizes. Composites with the minimum and maximum filler size are selecte… Show more
