Abstract
Nano-sized particulate materials have been influencing their effect in the modern world. In this paper, morphological conduct is been decided by using the sandwich sheets of fibre-metal laminates (FMLs) containing nanoclay Cloisite 30B and Mg–Al layered double hydro-oxide (Mg–Al LDH). Atomic force microscope (AFM) is been utilized to discover the harshness of the nano-particles. Here, the tensile test for 3, 4 and 5 wt% of layered double hydroxide (LDH)/nanoclay added FML sheets was analysed. The EDAX is employed to discover the real structure of the chosen nano-powders along the identification of the chemical composition of the nanofiller. It results that the sandwich sheet with nanoclay had smooth surface for a similar molecule measure than the LDH. The fractured surface is analysed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) hence indicates ductile nature of fracture for modified epoxy and reinforced with glass fibre metal. Henceforth, nanoclay and LDH-based FMLs can be decided on applications in automotive applications.
