“…In addition, the weight loss of the modified red mud was approximately 1.5 wt% more than that of the pure red mud as the temperature was increased, which indicated the amount of silane coupling agent grafted on the red mud. All of these findings confirm that silane coupling agent A1160 was successfully grafted onto the red mud …”

A new type of composite based on phenolic foams reinforced with red mud microparticles was prepared using a thermal foaming method. Red mud was ground into ultrafine particles with grain diameters ranging from 1 to 1.5 μm. Silane coupling agent γ‐ureidopropyltriethoxysilane was used to modify the red mud microparticles to improve particle dispersion and adhesion between the particles and the phenolic matrix. The effects of the modified red mud microparticles on the mechanical and thermal properties of the composite were investigated at weight ratios ranging from 0 to 21%. The phenolic foams incorporating 15 wt% of the filler exhibited the best integrated performance. In comparison with native phenolic foams, tensile strength and impact strength were increased by 81.8 and 82.3%, respectively. Furthermore, the addition of modified red mud microparticles to the phenolic foam significantly decreased its thermal conductivity while increasing its limiting oxygen index. A morphological analysis using scanning electron microscopy indicated that incorporation of the modified red mud microparticles into the foam produced relatively small and uniformly sized cells within the material, which indicated that the observed improvements in mechanical and thermal properties were primarily due to the chemical adhesion between the particles and the matrix and good dispersion of particles in the matrix. The reinforced foams described in this study can be used in a variety of applications in the field of heat insulation. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry

“…In fact T 5% and T 10% increased by approximatively 37 and 58 1C respectively and the char yield at 800 1C reached a value of 83.5%. These considerable enhancements in T 5% and T 10% are related to the shielding effect of the nano-SiN particles that act as a barrier reducing the motion and insulating the materials from the heat source [9]. Moreover, these enhancements can be related to the good dispersion and the ameliorated adhesion between the nanofillers and the polymeric matrix thanks to the treatments of the particles with GX-540 silane coupling agent.…”

“…The silane surface modification was proven to ameliorate the state of dispersion and adhesion of the particles inside the PN matrices . A detailed discussion about the efficiency of the particles treatment was presented in our previous work and will not be further discussed herein . The treatment procedure was performed as follows: the native Ti 3 SiC 2 nanoparticles were placed in a vacuum oven for over 5 h to remove any moisture adsorbed at their surfaces.…”

“…The PN resins were effectively used as high performance matrices for ceramic based micro and nanocomposites and improvements in the neat resins properties were obtained. For instance, silicon carbide (SiC), silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4 ), and alumina (Al 2 O 3 ) induced huge enhancements in the thermal and mechanical properties of the neat PN resins . The anticorrosive properties of the neat PN resin were also enhanced by adding Titania (TiO 2 ) nanoparticles and ZnO further improved the UV shielding performances of the PN matrix .…”

A new kind of nanocomposites was prepared from a high performance phthalonitrile resin and Ti3SiC2 MAX phase ceramic nanoparticles. The synergistic combination of both phases led to nanocomposites with improved thermal and mechanical properties. For instance, the thermal conductivity and tensile properties of the neat resin were highly enhanced on adding more nanofillers contents. Moreover, the phthalonitrile resin toughness was enhanced by 123% at the maximum nanoparticles loading of 15 vol.%. The experimental investigations were also compared with predictions from Series, Halpin‐Tsai, and Kerner models and a full discussion was provided. A high resolution transmission electron microscope confirmed the ability of the MAX phase to create a conductive network, especially at high nanofillers amounts. SEM analyses of the tensile fractured surfaces revealed positive changes in the morphology, such as an increase in the roughness and amount of hackling as well as the formation of multiple micro‐cracks. The MAX phase also enhanced the thermal stability, stiffness, and glass transition temperature of the neat resin. This work confirms the superiority of the MAX phase ceramics over the traditional ones in enhancing the properties of the phthalonitrile resin and opens the way for further research in the field.
