Epoxy material being a key in a wide range of applications has become a center of attraction for interdisciplinary research. However, the limitations so far reported in using this material has led to the development of some new pitches such as Polyacetal and Araldite. Polyacetal being currently employed in bushes, wipers, gears, etc. while Araldite composites with a potential of delivering some august properties can be an alternative approach to the former. In this work, a comparative study is carried out on the me-chanical attributes of Polyacetal and Araldite (Epoxy) material. Various ASTM standard specimens casted with these materials are subjected to some exploratory assessments such as Tensile Test, Izod Impact Test, Charpy Impact Test, Three-point Bending Test and Vicker’s Hardness Test in order to determine the respective properties.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
