Abstract
Glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) composite with neat epoxy matrix and GFRP composite with epoxy-Micro carbon and epoxy-MWCNT composite matrix in were prepared. Micro and Nanofillers taken at 5,10,15 wt%(wt%) and 2,4,6 wt% respectively. The un-notched impact test is carried on each specimen as per ASTM D4812. The strength values are compared with neat epoxy matrix five layers of GFRP composite. The lack of a notch makes test method especially useful for reinforced materials where a notch may mask the effects of the notch. The impact response measured in terms of impact strength. Rest results showed that there is a significant impact of filler material on the strength. The size of particles is also showing a definite mark on the impact response. The 4 wt% Nano filler in Epoxy GFRP showed better results than all other samples. In micro fillers, 5 wt% of composition composite exhibited better strength. Overall, the research showed the potential to tailor composite properties to enhance impact performance by using different types, concentrations, and configurations of nano/microparticles.
