Studies on Mechanical Properties of Kevlar Fiber Reinforced Iron (III) Oxide Nanoparticles Filled Up/Epoxy Nanocomposites
Abstract:
Fiber reinforced polymer matrix composites have extensively been used in various fields such as aerospace industries, automobiles, marine, and defense industries because of their high strength/weight ratios. In this paper, effect of silane modified iron (III) oxide nanoparticles on the mechanical properties of Kevlar fiber reinforced epoxy composites has been investigated. Composites samples were prepared, each using eight layers of Kevlar fiber reinforced epoxy filled with silane modified iron (III) oxide nanoparticles. The fractured surfaces of fibre reinforced composites were characterized by SEM. Tensile and flexural strength was studied as per the ASTM standards. Based upon the results it is clear that the miscibility of the silane modified iron (III) oxide nanoparticles in the matrix system is of the prime importance with regard to performance.
