“…In our previous study 27 concerning unsaturated polyester/glass composites, the highest value of flexural strength and modulus were also observed in the case of applying titanium dioxide as an additional particulate filler. On the other hand, in the present work, the results showed that the optimal concentration of TiO 2 in the mixture with epoxy resin is 4 wt%, not 2 wt% as in the case of unsaturated polyester/glass composites.…”

“…The main objective of this work was to investigate the effect of submicron metal (ZnO, TiO 2 ) and non-metal oxide particles (SiO 2 ) on mechanical and thermo-mechanical properties of epoxy/glass composites. The presented research is a continuation of our previous work, 27 where we focused on determining the effect of the above-mentioned submicron particles on the properties of unsaturated polyester/glass composites. The influence of different chemical structure of thermosetting polymer matrix (epoxy resin and unsaturated polyester resin) was investigated.…”

In this study, the effect of selected submicron metal oxide (zinc oxide, titanium oxide) or non-metal oxide (silicon dioxide) particles on mechanical and thermo-mechanical properties of epoxy/glass composites was investigated. The applied epoxy resin was a diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A cured with triethylenetetramine. As a reinforcement twill weave E-glass fabric was used. Hybrid composites (contained particulate and fibrous filler) were fabricated by using the hand lay-up method and the average content of glass fibres was 39–41 wt%. Flexural properties, thermo-mechanical properties, abrasion resistance and hardness were determined for each group of the prepared hybrid epoxy/glass composites. The obtained results were compared with control samples (without submicron particles). Investigations showed that the addition of 2 wt% SiO2, 4 wt% TiO2 or 4 wt% ZnO to epoxy resin improved the flexural strength and the flexural modulus of composites. Dynamic mechanical analysis showed that the addition of the mentioned particles enhanced storage and loss modulus. It can be attributed to the good dispersion and good interaction between submicron-mentioned particles and the epoxy matrix.

Jute fiber (hessian cloth)-reinforced unsaturated polyester matrix composites (50 wt% fiber) were fabricated by hand lay-up technique. Tensile strength (TS), tensile modulus (TM), bending strength (BS), bending modulus (BM), elongation at break (Eb%), and impact strength (IS) of the composites were found to be 42 MPa, 2.7 GPa, 36 MPa, 2.1 GPa, 3%, and 21 kJ/m 2 , respectively. On the other hand, TS, TM, BS, BM, and Eb% of E-glass mat reinforced unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) composite were found to be 70 MPa, 3.8 GPa, 80 MPa, 2.5 GPa, and 5%, respectively. Then E-glass/UPR based composites (50 wt% fiber) were fabricated and the mechanical properties were compared with those of the Jute/UPR based composites. It was observed that E-glass fiber-based composites showed almost double mechanical properties as compared to jute composites. The interfacial shear strength of the jute and E-glass fiber-based systems was investigated and found to be 21 kJ/m 2 and 21.56 kJ/m 2 , respectively, measured using the single-fiber fragmentation test. After flexural testing, fracture sides of both types of the composites were studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the results showed that poor fiber-matrix adhesion for Jute/UPR based composites when it compared to that of the E-glass fiber composites. However, it was found that the E-glass fiber based composite has better strength as compared to jute fiber composite.

“…E-Glass is a low alkali glass which mainly contains SiO 2 54 wt%, Al 2 O 3 14 wt%, CaO + MgO 22 wt%, B 2 O 3 10 wt%, and Na 2 O + K 2 O less than 2wt%. Some other materials may also be found at impurity levels [6][7]. E-glass has good insulation properties and can maintain these properties up to 815°C.…”

Bamboo and E-glass fiber-reinforced polypropylene (PP) based composites (50 wt% fiber) were fabricated by compression molding. Tensile strength (TS), bending strength (BS), tensile modulus (TM), bending modulus (BM) and Elongation at break (%) of the bamboo fiber reinforced PP composite was found to be 62 MPa, 78 MPa, 4.96 GPa, 5.76 GPa, and 5.0%, respectively. Then, E-glass fiber-reinforced PP-based composites (50 wt% fiber) were also fabricated using the same methods and after that, the mechanical properties of the composites were evaluated. The TS, BS, TM, BM and Eb% of the Eglass fiber reinforced PP based composites were found to be 86 MPa, 88 MPa, 7.0 GPa, 12 GPa, and 16%, respectively. It was revealed that E-glass fiber reinforced based composites had higher TS, BS, TM, and BM compared to bamboo fiber reinforcedbased composites. At ambient conditions, degradation tests of the bamboo/PP composite were performed in soil and it took 24 weeks which showed that after degradation mechanical properties of the bamboo fiber retained its original mechanical properties. After the flexural test, fracture sides of the E-glass/PP and bamboo/PP composites were investigated using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the results revealed that bamboo-fiber reinforced based composites matrix adhesion less than the E-glass fiber reinforced based composites.
