“…To increase the physical properties such as thermal and electrical, single-walled carbon nanotubes were used for polyether ether ketone/glass fiber composites by Ashrafi et al [5]. Zhou et al [6] investigated the mechanical behaviors such as fatigue, tensile and flexural and thermal properties for carbon/epoxy composites containing nanoclay. Kanny ve Mohan [7] added nanoclay to the epoxy matrix of glass fiber/epoxy laminates and studied on the static and dynamic behavior.…”

In this study, the effect of graphene nanoplatelets reinforcement on the flexural strength of Eglass/epoxy laminated composite material was investigated experimentally. [0⁰/90⁰] 3S oriented composite materials with and without graphene nanoplatelets reinforcement were manufactured by using hand lay-up and vacuum bagging method. Graphene nanoplatelets at three different ratios (0.25, 0.5 and 1 wt.%) were added to the epoxy. The produced plates were cut with a water jet cutting machine to obtain three-point bending specimens. Then, three-point bending tests were performed according to the ASTM D790 standard. The span between the centers of support cylinders/composite specimen thickness ratio (s/t) was selected as 16 in all the tests. Results indicate that the addition of graphene nanoplatelets to the epoxy matrix increased the flexural strength of the laminated composite material. When the graphene nanoplatelets at ratios of 0.25, 0.5 and 1 wt.% were added to the epoxy matrix, the flexural strengths increased by 4.32%, 12.88% and 7.03% respectively.

The compressive properties of epoxy with different silica nanoparticles (SiO2 nanoparticles) contents at quasi-static and high strain rates loading were investigated via experiment. This article evaluates the compressive failure behaviors and modes at different SiO2 nanoparticles contents and different strain rates. The results indicated that the stress strain curves were sensitive to strain rate, and the compressive failure stress of composites with various SiO2 nanoparticles contents increased with the strain rates, and it increased along with SiO2 nanoparticles contents and then declined. The compressive failure stress and the compressive failure modes of the composites were apparently different from the change of SiO2 nanoparticles contents.

“…The improved resilience of these mats presumably reflects mechanical properties of the EGNFs that are much higher than those of the EGNFs reported previously. Subsequently, two types of hybrid multi‐scale epoxy composites were fabricated by the method of vacuum assisted resin transfer molding (VARTM) . For the first type of composites, six layers of conventional glass microfiber (GF) fabrics were infused with the nano‐epoxy resin containing shortened flexible EGNFs.…”

A mechanically flexible mat consisting of structurally amorphous SiO 2 (glass) nanofibers was first prepared by electrospinning followed by pyrolysis under optimized conditions and procedures. Thereafter, two types of hybrid multi-scale epoxy composites were fabricated via the technique of vacuum assisted resin transfer molding. For the first type of composites, six layers of conventional glass microfiber (GF) fabrics were infused with the epoxy resin containing shortened electrospun glass nanofibers (S-EGNFs). For the second type of composites, five layers of electrospun glass nanofiber mats (EGNF-mats) were sandwiched between six layers of conventional GF fabrics followed by the infusion of neat epoxy resin. For comparison, the (conventional) epoxy composites with six layers of GF fabrics alone were also fabricated as the control sample. Incorporation of EGNFs (i.e., S-EGNFs and EGNF-mats) into GF/epoxy composites led to significant improvements in mechanical properties, while the EGNF-mats outperformed S-EGNFs in the reinforcement of resin-rich interlaminar regions. The composites reinforced with EGNF-mats exhibited the highest mechanical properties overall; specifically, the impact absorption energy, interlaminar shear strength, flexural strength, flexural modulus, and work of fracture were (1097.3 6 48.5) J/m, (42.2 6 1.4) MPa, (387.1 6 9.9) MPa, (12.9 6 1.3) GPa, and (30.6 6 1.8) kJ/m 2 , corresponding to increases of 34.6%, 104.8%, 65.4%, 33.0%, and 56.1% compared to the control sample. This study suggests that EGNFs (particularly flexible EGNF-mats) would be an innovative type of nanoscale reinforcement for the development of high-performance structural composites.
