Journal ArticleDOI
Epoxy nanocomposites ¿ fracture and toughening mechanisms
TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive study was carried out on series of nanocomposites containing varying amounts of nanoparticles, either titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) or aluminium oxide (Al 2 O 3 ).
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure–property relationships of irradiation grafted nano-inorganic particle filled polypropylene composites
TL;DR: In this article, an irradiation grafting method was applied for the modification of nanoparticles so that the latter can be added to polymeric materials for improving their mechanical performance, using existing compounding techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of various fillers on the sliding wear of polymer composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of particle size and filler contents on the wear performance of short-fibre reinforced polymer composites is discussed and some new steps towards the development of functionally graded tribo-materials are illustrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tensile performance improvement of low nanoparticles filled-polypropylene composites
TL;DR: In this paper, a tougher polypropylene (PP) was compounded with nano-silica by industrial-scale twin screw extruder and injection molding machine in the presence of grafting polymers on the nanoparticles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Artificial neural networks applied to polymer composites: a review
Zhong Zhang,Klaus Friedrich +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, various principles of the neural network approach for predicting certain properties of polymer composite materials are discussed, such as fatigue life, wear performance, response under combined loading situations, and dynamic mechanical properties.
