Properties of Epoxide Nanocomposites Reinforced and Toughened by Modified Montmorillonite

Kai Zhang

Abstract

Epoxy resin is modified by organ montmorillonite.Epoxy montmorillonite nanocomposite is prepared through intercalation composition and its mechanical and heat properties are also tested.Microstructure and dynamic mechanical behavior of the composite are studied by XRD and DMA.Results show that impact strength of the composite is imporved by 60.67%,tensile strength 11.7%,heat distortion temperature 8.7 ℃.
