Mechanical and fracture properties of ternary PE/PA6/GF composites

The Effect of PTFE on the Mechanical and Friction and Wear Properties of GF/PA6 Composites

“…The polymers and their composites find very useful applications in automotive components such as gears, cams, wheels, brakes, clutches, bearings, etc. and also in other engineering applications like conveyor aids, chute liners, power, mining, agriculture and other allied fields [2,3]. Polyamide, as the one in the family of engineering plastics, has the advantages of high strength, excellent corrosion resistance, suitable wear resistance and favorable self-lubricating property, has been widely used in the engineering structures [4].…”

Properties of Polypropylene and Surface Modified Glass-Fibre Composites

“…Surface modified glass-fibres (SMGF) plays a significant role in enhancing mechanical properties of PP matrix through several energy absorbing events such as fibre pull-out, fibre fracture and fibre-bridging 6,7 . The mechanical properties of pure PP and SMGF-PP specimen are presented in Table 1.…”

The mechanical and tribological properties of MAH-grafted HDPE filled SiO2/PMMA composite

“…Polymer composites for engineering applications are mainly limited by several factors pertaining to the resin such as low modulus of the matrix, extreme notch sensitivity and poor thermal resistance. 7…”

“…Polymer composites for engineering applications are mainly limited by several factors pertaining to the resin such as low modulus of the matrix, extreme notch sensitivity and poor thermal resistance. 7 By utilizing the large surface-to-volume and aspect ratios of nanolayers, significant improvements in mechanical, physical, optical and thermal properties are achieved in polymer nanocomposites, leading to many potential applications in automotive and structural fields. Nonetheless, these materials often sustain low fracture toughness restricting their widespread usage.…”
