“…In this work, a cost-effective fabrication method called hand layup technique was employed for fabricating the tailor-made basalt-vinyl ester composites. From the preliminary results, 50 wt.% of fabric was found to be optimum reinforcement content that resulted better mechanical properties for the composites [24]. Hence, in this work 25 layers of basalt fabric mat of the size of 200 Â 150 mm was used for making the composites of thickness 7 mm.…”

In this work, the authors prepared basalt-vinyl ester tailor-made green composites with uncoated and polytetrafluroethylene coated basalt woven fabric. These composites were subjected to dynamic composites-made mechanical analysis and thermo gravimetric analysis. Results revealed that a significant improvement of 18%, 14% and 13% was observed for storage and loss modulus and damping properties of polytetrafluroethylene-coated composite at low temperature region. The thermo gravimetric analysis results indicated a three-stage degradation for the polytetrafluroethylene-filled composites. Based on the acceptability from the literature, the tribo-test was performed only on the polytetrafluroethylene-coated composite for the selected PV limit of 400 MPa-mm/s (10 KN and 50 mm/s) in a flat-on-flat configuration. It was found that the influence of polytetrafluroethylene filler on the static and dynamic coefficient of friction and specific wear rate of the composite was more pronounced at dry wear test condition and it was found as 0.22, 0.12, and 4.87484 E-09, respectively. However, the results of improved storage and loss modulus and damping manifested Corresponding author: Rajini Nagarajan, Kalasalingam University, Srivilliputtur, 626 126, Tamil Nadu, India. Email: rajiniklu@gmail.com negative correlation with the friction characteristics in the glassy region. Further, the SEM-coupled EDX spectral analysis was performed to understand the formation of transfer layer in counter surface. This polytetrafluroethylene blended composite is to be considered as an alternative to the bearing materials in offshore application.

“…With increased filler content in composites, the matrix becomes unable to provide areas for uniform filler dispersion. Manikandan et al (2012) have reported that the excess filler particles unite to form agglomerates which cause phase separation of matrix and the dispersed phase. From the above observations it is clear that BTJTCPC15 can be considered as the preferable hybrid composite due to maximum improvement in all the mechanical properties as well as regular and improved topography.…”

The present work demonstrates the fabrication and properties study of Vinyl ester i.e. Bisphenol-A glycidyldimethacrylate (BisGMA) composites hybridized with 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA-10% w/w) grafted jute fiber and aqueous NaOH (5% w/w) treated coir pith used in various proportions and to characterize thereof. The mechanical and dynamic mechanical properties were measured in dependence of treated & untreated fiber as well as filler content. Composite with HEA grafted jute fiber and coir pith (15 wt%) exhibited maximum improvement in the above mentioned properties. Thermogravimetric analysis indicated the thermal stability of composites due to effective hybridization. The corrosive and water ingress properties of the composites were found to be negligible contributing to longer durability of the panels in moist and corrosive conditions.
