About Possibilities of Strengthening of Epoxypolymer Composites by Modificated Brick Powder

Abstract

The composites of the epoxypolymer (EP) with the brick powder (BP) are new materials that combine high characteristics with the low price. Herein we d iscuss about the several such compositions and evaluate some physical characteristics for them. Presented data suggest that BP (at the concentration range from 5 to 50 wt%) increases strength characteristics of the epoxypoly mer's co mpression and abrasion, and reduce his shrinkiness. At the same t ime, the BP in 10 wt% concentration leads to the frustration and defectation in co mposite structure. Under the h igh concentrations of the BP (50 wt%) the plastic deformation disappears, the compression strength increases, contraction decreases, and the destruction of template goes through formation of Chernov-Luders Diagonal; but at the same time usage of high concentrations of the BP leads to increase of swelling of the polymer. The obtained results show that particles of brick powder ab le to significantly strengthen and structurize the EP-co mposite, at the same time make it more susceptible for liquid corrosion.

“…Acetone and acetone-contained solvents are very aggressive media for polyepoxides [3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. The unfilled polymer (especially freshly made) destructs in acetone solvents in a matter of days and sometimes hours.…”

“…An interesting potential filler for biocompatible innovative epoxy composites is zeolite and its varieties. There are researches on the effect on epoxy polymers of montmorillonite [14,15,25], clays and brick dust [3,16], aluminum oxide [10,20,21], pyrophyllite [11], brick powders [3,16], natural zeolites [18], bentonite [22], copper [26,27]. These issues are dealt with by teams led by Danchenko & Barabash [19][20][21], Erdogan [18], Choi & Leе [15], Burmistrov & Mostovoy [16], Starokadomsky [3,10], Borisov and others [25], Kahramanov & Allahverdieva [26,27].…”

Epoxy Composites Reinforced with Bazaltfibre Filled for Osteo-, Paleo-Prostheses and External Implants

“…Ideally, fibers of this size should give a mechanically strong interlocking with a polymer, and they can be expected to have considerable promise for practice. In addition, basalt, like other inorganic and oxide materials (glass & silica [3], granite [4], aluminosilicates [5], gypsum or cement [6]), has excellent affinity for epoxides and other polar resins (Figure 1). Epoxy-basalt plastics are stronger and more durable than glass-plastics, and much cheaper than carbon and aramide [5].…”
