Effect of surface treatment on the impact behaviour of fly‐ash filled polymer composites

Abstract: The impact behaviour of epoxy specimens containing 10% by volume of fly‐ash particles with their surface treated for improving or decreasing adhesion is studied. The resulting behavioural patterns are listed and compared to those of composites containing untreated fly‐ash particles and unreinforced (ie neat) epoxy. It was noticed that samples involving adhesion‐increasing (ie acetone and silane) treatments show greater absorption of energy and maximum load compared to untreated samples and those subjected to a… Show more

“…It is known that properties of particulate filled polymer composites are sensitive to the size, shape and distribution of filler particles in the polymeric matrix and also on their adhesion at the interface surface. Investigations on fly ash as filler in polymer matrix mostly concentrated on their mechanical [19,20], morphological and dielectric properties [15,[21][22]. Incorporation of fly ash in PET enhances its compression properties, which makes fly ash thermoplastics composites a viable choice for structural applications [23].…”

“…[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] The characteristics of cenosphere fillers such as the volume fraction and the size have the impact on the low rate behavior of the foam. [4,[8][9][10][11] The mechanical behavior is also significantly affected by the applied strain rate. Recently, more research efforts have been made to explore the high strain rate response of the foam.…”

“…Recently, more research efforts have been made to explore the high strain rate response of the foam. [10,[12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] Dynamic properties of syntactic foams are affected by the geometry and volume fraction of hollow microspheres. [13][14][15][16] The treatment of hollow microspheres can improve their interfacial adhesion to the epoxy matrix and thus the impact properties of the bulk foam, especially the strength.…”

“…11 The majority of the fly ash applications have been for construction and building materials while a few works have used fly ash as alternative fillers in polymers. [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] Since hydrophobic polymers and hydrophilic fly ash particles are incompatible and yielded poor interfacial bonding and inferior mechanical properties, chemical coupling agents are usually applied to promote adhesions between the polymer matrices and fly ash through formations of siloxane bonding. 12-17 Sen and Nugay 10 studied the mechanical properties of fly ash filled unsaturated polyester composites under uncured and thermally-cured states through the effect of fly ash loading and surface treatment.…”
