Abstract

In this project we determine the moisture absorption behavior and mechanical properties of GFRP composites filled with Sio2 & Tio2. The composite prepared with glass reinforced vinyl ester with silicon Dioxide and Titanium oxide as a filler Materials by hand lay-up technic. The specimens are submerged for 56 days in artificial sea water then tested for mechanical properties. The studies show that Sio2 and Tio2 can be used for vinyl ester resin as a toughening modifier. After long term ageing of dry specimen the ultimate tensile strength is decreased by 28.46% & flexural strength decreased by 36.32%.
