摘要
New developments in the synthesis of nanometer scale TiO2 particles have enabled the processing of exciting new nanoparticle/epoxy composites. An ultrasonic method was used to disperse the nanoparticles in epoxy, thus eliminating the need for solvent without sacrificing the ease of processing. Composites were processed at the 5, 10, 15 and 20 weight percent level and were characterized by SEM, tensile tests and scratch tests. These results at 10 percent loading were also compared with an equal loading of micron-size TiO2 fillers in epoxy to evaluate the strain-to-failure and scratch resistance.
