Influence of hybridizing fillers on mechanical properties of foam composite panel

Foam composite panels made from hybrid fillers are materials developed to have low density with high mechanical properties. This work focuses on improving the properties of epoxy-based foam hybridized by combining hollow glass microspheres (HGM) and nanoclay. The HGM content was varied 1 wt.% 3 in composites panel, while nanoclay 5 each HGM-filled series these were fabricated using a conventional resin casting method. such as tensile strength, impact hardness, flexural strength prepared hybrid-filled determined compared neat epoxy. It found that exhibited improved than These because excellent interfacial adhesion between matrix. could suggest this material may be suitable for application industries where lightweight good required. study showed new area synthetic development research enhancing hybrid-filled.
