Influence of FRP Residue on the Properties of Epoxy Based Artificial Granite

Abstract:

Nowadays, how to deal with fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) residue becomes very difficult. In this paper, the characteristic of the production technology of epoxy based artificial granite was considered. Epoxy resin, FRP residue, granites and fillers were used on the study of adding FRP residue and epoxy based artificial granites of different proportion were prepared. They were prepared by casting moulding under the normal pressure and temperature. Flexural and compressive strength of the artificial granites were studied. SEM was used to observe the internal microstructure of artificial granites. Meanwhile, effects of different granularity and content of FRP residue on the properties of artificial granites were discussed.
