Abstract

The mechanical properties of allylester composites filled with surface modified alumina have been studied with variation of the type of silane coupling agents. We investigated the tensile modulus, the compressive modulus and strength, and the flexural modulus and yield strength of each system as a function of the concentration of silane coupling agent using an Universal Testing Machine (UTM). At optimum concentration of each silane coupling agent, the tensile, compressive, flexural properties showed the maximum values. The relationships between the mechanical properties and the concentration of each silane coupling agent have been studied. In addition, the effect of silane coupling agent on each mechanical property was observed.
