Abstract

The present work focuses on the selection of argo waste CSP/WSP fillers due to their light weight, biodegradability, low density, abundant availability, and easy process-ability. In a controlled laboratory environment, the impact of different weight percentages of CSP/WSP (argo waste) particles (2.5, 5.0, 7.5, 10.0, 12.5, and 15.0 wt%) loaded into epoxy resin (LY 556) using a moulding process was investigated. The physical characteristics of developed composites are characterised and investigated, such as density, dimensional stability, as well as moisture content. It is observed from experimental work that the dimensional stability of CSP/WSP (1:1) reinforced epoxy based composites is better at 2.5 wt% of particulates.
