“…Silane‐treated aluminum/epoxy composites possess very good mechanical properties which are significantly greater than their untreated counterpart . Surface modification of aluminum powders by 3‐aminopropyltriethoxy silane improves the tensile, fracture, and tribological behaviors of aluminum/epoxy composites . Uniform particle dispersion throughout the matrix by ultrasonication, has been achieved in polyester/TiO 2 nanocomposites as confirmed by TEM observations.…”

Sisal fiber along with ZrO2 particles dispersed unsaturated polyester (UP) composites were fabricated by compression molding technique. The filler contents were varied from 5 to 45 wt% with a gradual increase of 10%. The structural investigation was done using Scanning electron microscopy, X‐ray diffraction, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Mechanical testing was performed through microhardness tester, tensile, flexural, and Izod impact test. The optimum mechanical properties were obtained at 35 wt% of filler incorporation within UP matrix followed by a slight deterioration at 45 wt%. Fractographic images of the composites display the phenomena of fiber pull‐out, debonding and breakage. The water absorption test was performed both at room temperature and boiling water temperature conditions. The thermal insulation measurement was performed by Kawabata method. POLYM.

“…The composite fillers can be modified with silane coupling agents due to the introduction of Al 2 O 3 particles. The chemical bonds can be formed between epoxy matrix and Al 2 O 3 particles [10] and the semicoherent interfaces can be formed between Al 2 O 3 and TiB 2 particles. Hence, the compatibility of TiB 2 particles in epoxy matrix can be improved.…”

The improvement of mechanical properties and toughness of nanoparticles for epoxy composites was mostly dependent on the disperse state of nanoparticles in epoxy matrices. When the content of nanoparticles was higher than a threshold value, it was easy to aggregate and then affect the improvement effect. Pickering emulsion was prepared using SiO2 nanoparticles as emulsifier and functional monomer as oil phase. The influence of Pickering emulsion on the curing process was investigated. The effect of Pickering emulsion on the mechanical properties, toughness, and glass transition temperature (Tg) was studied. Impact and tensile fracture surface were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results from differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), tensile, impact, and fracture toughness tests are provided. The results indicated that the introduction of Pickering emulsion can eliminate the residual stress and accelerate curing reaction. Epoxy composites were capable of increasing tensile strength by up to 29.9%, impact strength of three‐fold, fracture toughness of 35%, and Tg of 20.7°C in comparison with the reference sample. SEM images showed that SiO2 nanoparticles exhibit a good dispersion in epoxy matrix. The increases in mechanical properties, toughness, and Tg of epoxy composites were attributed to the “Second Phase Toughness” mechanism.
