“…These materials provide high durability, design flexibility and lightweight which makes them attractive materials in these applications [1][2][3]. The properties of composites are significantly related to the properties of composite constituents, i.e., fiber, matrix and the interphase between them [4].…”

Mechanical and thermal properties of non-crimp glass fiber reinforced clay/epoxy nanocomposites were investigated. Clay/epoxy nanocomposite systems were prepared to use as the matrix material for composite laminates. X-ray diffraction results obtained from natural and modified clays indicated that intergallery spacing of the layered clay increases with surface treatment. Tensile tests indicated that clay loading has minor effect on the tensile properties. Flexural properties of laminates were improved by clay addition due to the improved interface between glass fibers and epoxy. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) results showed that the modified clay particles affected the glass transition temperatures (T g ) of the nanocomposites. Incorporation of surface treated clay particles increased the dynamic mechanical properties of nanocomposite laminates. It was found that the flame resistance of composites was improved significantly by clay addition into the epoxy matrix.

“…Shahid et al [4] investigate boehmite particles with two surface modifications (lysine and para-hydroxybenzoate) in a carbon fiber/epoxy composite and report an increase of tensile and flexural properties for very small particle fractions. For weight fractions above approximately 5 %, the properties decrease compared to the unfilled composite.…”

There are several examples of their interesting practical applications as nanometer-size fillers in polymer composites, [9][10][11] supports for olefin polymerization catalysts [12] and processable precursors to various types of alumina based ceramics. [13] In this work we present initial results of our studies on the synthesis of composites in the course of the radical copolymerization of carboxylate-alumoxanes and their grafting with polymers.…”

Summary: The possibility of applying basic aluminum carboxylates as the crosslinking monomers in radical polymerization processes as well as the initiators for ATRP of styrene and coordination ROP of heterocyclic monomers was examined. It was established, that aluminum carboxylates containing in their structure the acrylic and lauric acids derivatives show high activity in the copolymerization with vinyl monomers which results in the hybrid polymer networks formation. In the typical ATRP conditions, polymers grafted with styrene are obtained while basic aluminum 2-bromopropionate is used as the initiator. Hybrid composites i.e. core-shell nanospheres can be obtained in this way at low degree of polymerization. Nanoparticles of basic aluminum caroboxylates when reacted with triethylaluminum show high activity as initiators in the polymerization processes of e-caprolactone, trimethylene carbonate as well as propylene and ethylene oxides. Cross-linked products in the form of a gel were formed as the result of ROP in such systems. However, linear polymers characterized by M n above 10 4 and PDI ! 1.9 were obtained after aluminum residuals removal.
