A study of the effect of Nano materials on the physical properties of epoxy composites

الملخص EN

This research studies the effect of addition of some nanoparticles (MgO, CuO) and grain size (30, 40nm) on some physical properties (impact strength, hardness and thermal conductivity) for a matrix blend of epoxy resin with SBR rubber.

Hand –Lay up method was used to prepare the samples.

All samples were immersed in water for 9 weeks.

The Results showed decreased in the values of impact strength and hardness but increased the coefficient of thermal conductivity.
