Abstract

In this study, polymeric blends were developed by incorporating nano ZrO2 in the polymer blend with applications to oil tanks. The samples of tanks from the oil pipelines company of the Dora refinery in Baghdad. The blend and Nanocomposites preparation using casting method, the ratio of ZrO2 nano (0, 1, 3, 5, and 7 wt%). The results showed the mechanical tests, the best ratio of hardness 3 wt% with (71.93) and 3 wt% with Abrasion wear resistance the (2.4×10-7) compared with another ratio. The Adhesion strength of pure (2.31) MPa and the best ratio of 1 wt% (8.39) MPa. The current work confirms the thermal stability of the nanocomposites increases gradually with increasing the percentage of ZrO2 compared to the blend without adding ZrO2 nano and this is due to the thermal resistance of the ZrO2 nano.
