Initially, pristine polymers were used to develop corrosion-resistant coatings. Later, the trend shifted use of polymeric nanocomposites in anti-corrosion materials. In this regard, graphene has been identified as an important nanomaterial. Consequently, polymer/graphene have applied for erosion protection applications. Among polymers, conducting (polyaniline, polypyrrole, polythiophene, etc.) ...

the creep behavior of basalt fiber reinforced epoxy (bfre) and glass fiber reinforced epoxy (gfre) composites was studied through tensile testing at high temperature. to study the effect of reinforcing epoxy, the micro glass powder (mgp) was added at various volume percentage into the epoxy resin in bfre composites. the initial strain for all the specimens were evaluated and compared with each ...

This study investigates the electrical behavior of silicon nitride/epoxy nanocomposites. It is demonstrated that presence nanofiller affects resin/hardener stoichiometry, which results in development different network structures throughout matrix polymer. However, detailed analysis shows this stoichiometric effect cannot account, alone, for observed changes nanocomposite samples. A comparison b...
