The hardness, impact strength of the composites were measured, and their friction and wear properties under dry and water lubrication sliding against quenched AISI-1045 steel were evaluated on an MM-200 tester. The fractograph of impact specimens, worn surfaces of the composites and their transfer films on the counterpart steel surfaces were observed with a scanning electron microscope and an optical microscope. Experimental results show that the composites containing 50% 74147μm fly ash have the highest hardness, highest impact strength and smallest wear rate. The wear rate of the composite is reduced by over two orders of magnitude. However, the composite containing over 50% fly ash has decreased wear-resistance, which is attributed to the weakened interaction between the filler and the polymer matrix in the presence of inadequate polymer matrix. The improved wear-resistance of the composite under dry sliding against the steel is attributed to the formation of the composite transfer film thereon.展开更多

Mica was added to rigid PVC compound at different concentrations (0 - 20 wt%) and processed using a single screw profile extruder. PVC foam-Mica composites were characterized for their dimensional stability, and structural, thermal, and mechanical properties. Experimental results showed that the dimensional stability increased by 44% and heat resistance of the samples improved as the amount of mica increased in the composites. The storage modulus and tensile strength of the composites were also enhanced with the addition of mica. However, increasing the concentration of mica had no significant effect on the impact and flexural properties of the composites. SEM micrographs show good dispersion and orientation of the mica flakes along the cell walls of the PVC foam. Overall, the platy structure and physical properties of mica seemed to have played an important role in providing good interfacial bonding with the cell membranes of the foam, thus enhancing the dimensional stability of the PVC- Mica foam composites.展开更多

The obtained CF/PEKK composites possessed outstanding EMI and mechanical performances, as anticipated. Specifically, the CF/PEKK composites modified with MXene at 1 mg mL–1 exhibited an excellent EMI shielding effectiveness of 65.2 dB in the X-band, a 103.1% enhancement compared with the unmodified CF/PEKK composites. The attractive EMI shielding performances of CF/PEKK composites originated from enhanced ohmic losses and multiple reflections of electromagnetic waves with the help of the MXene and CF layers. In addition, CF/PEKK composites achieved the best mechanical properties by optimizing the dispersion concentration of MXene to 0.1 mg mL–1 . The flexural strength, flexural modulus, and interlaminar shear strength of CF/PEKK composites reached 1127 MPa, 81 GPa, and 89 MPa, which were 28.5%, 9.5%, and 29.7% higher than that of the unmodified CF/PEKK composites, respectively. Such improvement in mechanical properties could be ascribed to the comprehensive effect of mechanical interlocking, hydrogen bonds, and Van der Waals forces between the introduced MXene and CF, PEKK, respectively.展开更多

In this study, the effects of kaolin and surface treatment of CaCO3 and kaolin particles on the microstructure and mechanical properties of PVC composites filled with kaolin particles via melt blending method were studied by means of SEM, tensile, Charpy impact testing, and FTIR. Treated and untreated kao-lin particles were dispersed in matrices of PVC resin at different concentrations up to 30 wt percentage. The tensile strength, elastic modulus, strain to failure and morphology of the resulting composites were measured for various filler loadings. Uniform dispersion of the fillers into the matrix proved to be a critical factor. SEM images revealed that small sized particles were more agglomerated than micron-sized particles and the amount of agglomerates increased with increasing particle content. Silane treated Kaolin-CaCO3/PVC composites had superior tensile and impact strengths to untreated kaolin-CaCO3/PVC composites. The Young’s modulus of all composites increased with increasing particle content up to maximum at 10% filler loading followed by gradually decreasing as content increased.展开更多

文摘The polyvinyl chloride (PVC) composites containing fly ash of various grit sizes and contents were prepared by hot pressing. The hardness, impact strength of the composites were measured, and their friction and wear properties under dry and water lubrication sliding against quenched AISI-1045 steel were evaluated on an MM-200 tester. The fractograph of impact specimens, worn surfaces of the composites and their transfer films on the counterpart steel surfaces were observed with a scanning electron microscope and an optical microscope. Experimental results show that the composites containing 50% 74147μm fly ash have the highest hardness, highest impact strength and smallest wear rate. The wear rate of the composite is reduced by over two orders of magnitude. However, the composite containing over 50% fly ash has decreased wear-resistance, which is attributed to the weakened interaction between the filler and the polymer matrix in the presence of inadequate polymer matrix. The improved wear-resistance of the composite under dry sliding against the steel is attributed to the formation of the composite transfer film thereon.
