Experimental and numerical investigation of adhesively bonded kfrp/steel double strap joints incorporating eggshell powder-toughened epoxy adhesive by Chia Lia Yip, Chia Lia Yip, Sugiman Sugiman, Sugiman Sugiman, Desmond Chin, Desmond Chin, Ahmad, Hilton

“…Moreover, epoxy resin is widely used as a matrix of composites and adhesives; however, it has low shear strength. Improvement of epoxy properties is therefore required, for example, by incorporating biofiller such as eggshells from household waste, which contain calcite, to improve its shear strength. …”
