“…Silver nanoparticles have attracted significant attention in research and development, because of its special physical and chemical properties [4,5]. Besides, because silica has good chemical stability, high specific surface area which is rich in hydroxyl groups with organisms having the good compatibility characteristics, it has become an excellent carrier material to prepare composite materials [6][7][8][9].…”

“…ANOVA identifies the content of each input variable and was used to determine the control parameters effect on the buckling strength of the laminated composites. 12,34 One of the most important steps in the Taguchi design is selecting the controllable factors. In this study, the three controllable parameters, as told above, were selected according to Table 1 to optimize the input parameters to achieve the highest buckling strength of new quaternary nanocomposite.…”

This article experimentally investigates the buckling strength of carbon fiber-reinforced polymer laminates. Samples were made with 16 layers of carbon fibers in four orientations of 0°, 30°, 60°, and 90°. Nano silica (SiO 2 ) and nano clay were used as fillers for enhancement of the buckling strength of carbon fiber-reinforced polymer laminates. The Taguchi method was used for design of experiments and optimizing the three input factors: nano silica, nano organoclay, and carbon fiber orientation. From the results, first, it was found that the most buckling strength belonged to the samples with the fiber orientation of 0°and the minimum strength belonged to the composite laminates with the 90°orientation of carbon fiber. Second, the use of two nano fillers in quaternary laminates (epoxy/carbon fiber/silica/clay) has increased the buckling strength of laminates about 45.5% and 22.5% in comparison with binary and ternary laminates, respectively. The binary laminates were made from carbon fiber/epoxy resin and the ternary laminates included carbon fiber/clay/epoxy. Third, the elastic modulus of laminates increased with an increase in the nano SiO 2 content. The most effective parameters according to the analysis of variance results were as follows: carbon fiber orientation, nano silica, and nano organoclay, with a probability value of 99%, 95%, and 90%, respectively. Finally, the analytical analysis was done according to the classical laminated plate theory for obtaining the buckling force and verifying and comparing the results with experimental buckling tests. The results obtained from classical laminated plate theory for two certain laminates were in excellent agreement with those obtained from experimental results.

“…Welldispersed silica nanoparticles stiffen and toughen an epoxy adhesive more efficiently than silica microparticles owing to their larger surface-to-volume ratio, forming a more substantial matrix-filler interface area at a given weight fraction [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. However, without any treatment, high-silica-content nanoparticles are difficult to disperse uniformly using a conventional mechanical mixer and tend to aggregate/agglomerate in the epoxy matrix [8][9][10].…”

Dynamic stiffness and damping of epoxy adhesives are critical for ensuring the safety, reliability, and comfort of structures subjected to vibrations and impact loads. This study conducts split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) tests to investigate the synergistic effects of silica micro-nanoparticles on these critical properties. Micro-nanoparticle content and composition ratio purity are varied at 2, 5, and 10% by weight (wt%) and from 0% (pure microparticles) to 100% (pure nanoparticles), respectively. Positive simultaneous stiffening and energy absorption effects are observed at a silica content of 5 wt% owing to improved nanoparticle dispersion; this increases the interface area and induces cooperative matrix-filler interactions. At this silica content and a composition ratio of 50%, stiffness and damping are 45 and 40% larger than those of neat epoxy, respectively. Silica micro-nanoparticles are less effective in improving particle dispersion at more than 5 wt%. Conventional mechanical dispersion is limited to applications below a certain silica content; the results suggest a simple, low-cost dispersion technique as an alternative to the in-situ technique and provide options for designing epoxy stiffness and damping appropriate for specific applications.
