Özet

In this study, the effect of boron nitride nano particle (BNNP) and/or carbon nanotube (CNT) adding for epoxy modification upon tensile, flexural and shear properties of epoxy resin and carbon fiber (CF) laminated nanocomposites were investigated. Epoxy based polymer nanocomposites were prepared by conventional casting in stainless steel mold and the CF/epoxy laminated nanocomposites were produced via vacuum assisted resin transfer molding (VARTM). Experimental results showed that the tensile, shear and flexural properties of epoxy nanocomposites and CF/epoxy laminated nanocomposites considerably increased by adding nanoparticle. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was utilized in order to determine damage formation of experimented nanocomposite samples. The results of laboratory tests showed that the highest values of mechanical properties were obtained for BNNP-CNT hybrid nanocomposite specimens. Bending stiffness increasement values of BNNP-CNT/Epoxy and BNNP-CNT-Epoxy/CF achieved by 27.5 %, and 38.5 %, respectively. Shear strength increasement for BNNP-CNT/Epoxy and BNNP-CNT-Epoxy/CF were determined by 23 %, and 90 %, respectively.
