| description | AbstractRecent past decades have witnessed remarkable advances in composites with potentialapplications in biomedical devices, aerospace, textiles, civil engineering, energy, electronicengineering, and household products. Thermoset polymer composites have further enhancedand broadened the area of applications of composites. In the present work epoxy-BMItoughened-silica hybrid (RHA/DGEBA-BMI) was prepared using bismaleimide astoughener, bisphenol-A as matrix and a silica precursor derived from rice husk ash asreinforcement with glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane as coupling agent. Differential scanningcalorimetry, electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and goniometry were used tocharacterize RHA/DGEBA-BMI composites developed in the present work. Tensile, impactand flexural strength, tensile and flexural modulus, hardness, dielectric properties were alsostudied and discussed. The hybrid nanocomposites possess the higher values of the glasstransition temperature (Tg) and mechanical properties than those of neat epoxy matrix. |
