Abstract

This paper investigates the fly ash content effect on physical and mechanical properties of basalt fiber reinforced epoxy composites. The composite samples with different fly ash content (0–15 wt-% in step of 5 wt-%) were prepared by Hand lay-up technique. The effect of fly ash content on the physical (densities and void content) and mechanical (tensile strength, flexural strength, impact strength) properties of the composites have been analyzed experimentally. Void contents of the composites increased with fly ash percentage and 10 wt-% fly ash filled basalt-epoxy composite shows better mechanical properties than others.
