Strengthening and stiffening carbon fiber epoxy composites by halloysite nanotubes, carbon nanotubes and silicon carbide whiskers
Seungjin Han,D.D.L. Chung +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, natural halloysite (Hal) nanotubes were incorporated in the composite at every interlaminar interface (interface between adjacent fiber laminae) by fiber prepreg surface modification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metal compound nanoparticles: Flame retardants for polymer composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of particle size on the flame-retardant properties of polyvinyl alcohol and polymethylmethacrylate was demonstrated, where fillers can be used either in the pure form or as synergistic additive to phosphorus-containing flame retardants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation of structure and thermal stability of surfactant-modified Al-pillared montmorillonite
TL;DR: In this article, the inorganic-organic montmorillonites were synthesized by intercalating Al-Mts and C-AlMts with the cationic surfactant, hexadecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (HDTMAB).
Journal ArticleDOI
High exchangeable calcium concentrations in soils on Barro Colorado Island, Panama
TL;DR: In this paper, a diffractometry of the fraction < 2 μm revealed that smectites dominated the clay mineral assemblage in soil except on Caimito volcanic, where kaolinite was the dominant clay mineral.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Montmorillonite Nanogel Composite Fillers on the Protection Performance of Epoxy Coatings on Steel Pipelines
TL;DR: The modified MMT nanogel epoxy composites showed excellent resistance to mechanical damage and salt spray resistance up to 1000 h, and their ability to act as self-healing materials for epoxy coatings for steel improved.
