Epoxy nanocomposites co-reinforced by two dimensionally different nanoscale particles

Comprehensive high-performance epoxy nanocomposites were prepared by simultaneous incorporating montmorillonite (MMT) and nanoSiO₂ into epoxy. Mechanical tests and thermal analyses showed that the epoxy/MMT/nanoSiO₂ nanocomposites obtained considerable improvement over basic epoxy in tensile modulus, tensile strength, flexural modulus, flexural strength, notch impact strength, glass transition temperature, and thermal decomposition temperature. X-ray diffraction measurements and transmission electronic microscopy observations revealed that the layered structure of MMT was completely exfoliated into two-dimensional nanoscale mono-platelets. These 2D mono-platelets formed intermingled structure with the zero-dimensional nanoSiO₂ spheres in the nanocomposites. This study suggests that employing the synergistic reinforcement effect of two dimensionally different nanoscale particles is one pathway to success in developing comprehensive high-performance polymer nanocomposites.

Nanocomposites based on epoxy resin and silicon dioxide particles

Synthesis and properties of Fe0.83V1.17O4

Thermal properties of the organic–inorganic bicontinuous nanocomposites prepared via in situ two-stage polymerization of various silanes, epoxy, and amine monomers are investigated, and the impact of filler content and its organic compatibility on thermal stability of these nanocomposites is studied. Two series of epoxy–silica nanocomposites, namely, EpSi-A and EpSi-B containing 0–20 wt% silica, are synthesized. An epoxy–silane coupling agent is employed to improve the organic compatibility of silica in EpSi–B nanocomposites. The composites synthesized via two-stage polymerization are characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric (TG) analysis. DSC and TG/differential thermogravimetric results reveal substantially high glass transition (T _g) and excellent thermal stability of the bicontinuous nanocomposites as compared with pristine epoxy polymer. Both T _g and thermal properties, however, considerably vary depending on the organic compatibility of the nanocomposites. Significantly higher decomposition temperatures are recorded in case of EpSi-B nanocomposites owing to the chemical links between the epoxy and silica phases. Kinetic studies also show relatively higher activation energies of pyrolysis for EpSi-B nanocomposites.     

SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION AND PROPERTIES OF ORGANOCLAY-MODIFIED POLYSULFONE/EPOXY INTERPENETRATING POLYMER NETWORK NANOCOMPOSITES

Thermally conductive and electrically insulative nanocomposites based on hyperbranched epoxy and nano‐Al2O3 particles modified epoxy resin

Novel epoxy nanocomposites based on a diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) epoxy, an epoxy functionalized hyperbranched polymer (HTTE) and nano‐Al₂O₃ were synthesized with the aim of determining the effect of the nano‐Al₂O₃ particles and HTTE on the structure and properties of epoxy nanocomposites. The mechanical properties, thermal conductivity, bulk resistivity, and thermal stability of the nano‐Al₂O₃/HTTE/DGEBA ternary composites were evaluated and compared with the corresponding matrix. The improvement in impact properties of these nanocomposites was explained in terms of fracture surface analysis by SEM. The results indicate that the incorporation of nanoparticles and hyperbranched epoxy effectively improved the toughness of epoxy composites without sacrificing thermal conductivity and bulk resistivity compared to the neat epoxy and Al₂O₃/DGEBA, obtaining a well dispersion of nanoparticles in epoxy matrix and solving the drawbacks for single fillers filled epoxy nanocomposite.

Thermo-oxidative degradation of novel epoxy containing silicon and phosphorous nanocomposites

Modified epoxy nanocomposites containing silicon and phosphorous was prepared and compared with pure epoxy. The study of thermo-oxidative degradation of modified epoxy nanocomposites and pure epoxy has been utilized by thermal analysis. The thermal stability of modified epoxy nanocomposites is not superior to that of the pure epoxy at low temperature, however, the char yield of modified epoxy nanocomposites is higher than that of the pure epoxy at 800 °C in air atmosphere. The modified epoxy nanocomposites possess better thermal stability at high temperature range. The values of the limiting oxygen index of pure epoxy and modified epoxy nanocomposites are 24 and 32, respectively. This indicates that modified epoxy nanocomposites possesses better flame retardance.By the Kissinger’s method, the activation energies of thermo-oxidative degradation for epoxy nanocomposites are less than those of thermo-oxidative degradation for pure epoxy in first stage of thermo-oxidative degradation. However, the activation energies of thermo-oxidative degradation for epoxy nanocomposites are more than those of thermo-oxidative degradation for pure epoxy in second stage of thermo-oxidative degradation.     

Nanomorphology and fire behavior of polystyrene/organoclay nanocomposites containing brominated epoxy and antimony oxide

Organoclay nanocomposites were prepared by ultrasound‐assisted solution intercalation technique based on polystyrene containing brominated epoxy and a combination of brominated epoxy and antimony oxide. Aspects of nanomorphology and nanodispersion were investigated by X‐ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy whereas flammability and reaction to fire were evaluated using limiting oxygen index, UL‐94, and mass loss calorimeter tests. Polystyrene/brominated‐epoxy‐blend‐based nanocomposites showed mixed intercalated–exfoliated nanomorphology where polymer‐intercalated crystallites predominantly exist in polystyrene matrix and exfoliated silicate layers reside on polystyrene/brominated epoxy phase boundaries and within brominated epoxy domains. Organoclay was found to impart a compatibilization effect on polystyrene and dispersed brominated epoxy, which facilitates uniform distribution of a fine flame‐retarding phase within the matrix. With the reduction of the rate at which decomposition products evolve into the gas phase, organoclay nanocomposites showed notable reductions in peak heat release rate and increases in limiting oxygen index. The gas‐phase hot radical entrapment by halogenated flame‐retardant system was coupled with the condensed‐phase physical action of nanodispersed organoclay, which increased the overall fire‐retardant effectiveness. Fire‐retardant mechanisms of nanocomposites based on polystyrene/brominated epoxy blends were attributed to nanoconfinement and tortuous pathway effects of organoclay rather than to carbonaceous char formation proposed earlier for polystyrene/organoclay systems without conventional flame retardants.

Effect of filler loading,geometry, dispersion and temperature on thermal conductivity of polymer nanocomposites

Using a unidirectional heat transfer apparatus, the roles of nanoparticle geometry, loading, dispersion and temperature on the thermal conductivity of polymer nanocomposites are investigated. The polymer nanocomposites (PNC) consist of epoxy matrices filled with silica nanopowder and carbon nanotubes, respectively, as well as poly (2-vinylpyridine) (P2VP) matrices loaded with silica nanoparticles. First, it is shown that thermal conductivity generally increases with nanofiller loading. These results are also reasonably described by the three phase Lewis-Nielsen or Halpin-Tsai analytical models. More importantly, it has been also demonstrated that the thermal conductivity of the polymer nanocomposites greatly depends on the dispersion state of the nanofillers. Furthermore, the effect of temperature on the thermal behavior of PNCs is briefly discussed. These results emphasize the important role of nanoparticles content and dispersion state on the thermal characteristics of polymer nanocomposites, which can be used to design composite materials with tunable thermal behavior.     

High-resolution electron microscopy of montmorillonite and montmorillonite/epoxy nanocomposites

With the use of high-resolution transmission electron microscopy the structure and morphology of montmorillonite (MMT), a material of current interest for use in polymer nanocomposites, was characterized. Using both imaging theory and experiment, the procedures needed to generate lattice images from MMT were established. These procedures involve careful control of the microscope's objective lens defocus to maximize contrast from features of a certain size, as well as limiting the total dose of electrons received by the sample. Direct images of the MMT lattice were obtained from neat Na+ MMT, organically modified MMT, and organically modified MMT/epoxy nanocomposites. The degree of crystallinity and turbostratic disorder were characterized using electron diffraction and high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM). Also, the extent of the MMT sheets to bend when processed into an epoxy matrix was directly visualized. A minimum radius of curvature tolerable for a single MMT sheet during bending deformation was estimated to be 15 nm, and from this value a critical failure strain of 0.033 was calculated. HREM can be used to improve the understanding of the structure of polymer nanocomposites at the nanometer-length scale.
