Abstract EN
Chemical analysis and morphological studies of fly ash reveals the complex chemical constituents present as spherical particles with diameter of less than 25 μm.
The constituents of fly ash are silica, alumina, iron oxide, titanium dioxide, calcium and magnesium oxide, and other trace elements.
The use of thermosetting as well thermoplastic polymer matrix has been made by several workers to develop polymer matrix fly ash particulate composites by using the hard and abrasive properties of fly ash and lightweight of polymers.
Such composites have poor mechanical strength, fracture toughness, and thermal stability.
To overcome these shortcomings, in carbonaceous matrix, the carbon fibers were added as additional reinforcement along with the fly ash.
The composites were developed with two different methods known as Dry method and Wet method.
The processing parameters such as temperature and pressure were optimized in establishing the carbon matrix.
Physical, thermal, and mechanical characteristics were studied.
The microstructures of composites show good compatibility between fly ash and fibers with the carbon matrix.
These composites have higher strength, thermal stability, and toughness as compared to polymer matrix fly ash particulate composites.
