Enhancing Fracture Toughness of Glass/Epoxy Composites for Wind Blades Using Silica Nanoparticles and Rubber Particles
2011
Procedia Engineering
The research aims to investigate the interlaminar fracture toughness of glass fiber/epoxy composites, which consist of the silica nanoparticles and the rubber particles. Two kinds of rubber particles, one is the reactive liquid rubber (CTBN) and the other is the core-shell rubber (CSR), were employed to modify the fracture toughness of epoxy resin. In general, the disadvantage of adding rubber particles into polymeric resin is the dramatic reduction of stiffness although the toughness could be
