Mechanical properties and erosion wear resistance of polyurethane matrix composites

Effect of Filler Content and Alkalization on Mechanical and Erosion Wear Behavior of CBPD Filled Bamboo Fiber Composites

“…The test results show that with the presence of CBPD, hardness (Hv) value of the untreated and treated bamboo epoxy composites is improved and this improvement is a function of the CBPD content. Similar trend is also observed by previous investigators [15][16][17]. …”

Metal-organo-zinc oxide materials: Investigation on the structural, optical and electrical properties

“…rice husk and polyethylene glycol [18], natural fibers [19], minerals [20], silicas [21,22], aluminas [23], carbon nanotubes [24] and others [25,26]. Low nanoparticle size and large specific surface area are essential requirements for optimum interfacial interaction between the filler and the organic molecule and for improving the material properties.…”

Erosive behaviors of SiC foam/epoxy co-continuous phase composites

“…As for fibers/particles reinforced polymer composites, the erosion process mainly includes removal of the matrix, exposure and breakage of fibers/particles and detachment of the reinforcements from the matrix [6][7][8][9]. The erosive behaviors of polymer composites are greatly influenced by the experimental related parameters (impingement angle, impact velocity, erodent type, size, shape, hardness and content) and properties of the matrix and reinforcements.…”
