Improved Mechanical Properties of Basalt and Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer Composite by Incorporating Nano Silica
Aidah Jumahat
Abstract:Granite waste that increasingly accumulates yearly is significant with granite industry growth. This research aims to use nano silica extracted from granite dust to identify the effect of nano silica on the mechanical properties of Basalt and Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer Composite. The approach encompassed three distinct weight percentages of nano silica, specifically 1 wt%, 3 wt%, and 5 wt%, seamlessly blended into a polyester resin matrix. The evaluation of composite mechanical attributes was conducted thr… Show more
