Abstract In this investigation, nano basalt reinforced neat epoxy nanocomposites have been fabricated. Neat epoxy along with five various compositions of the nano basalt fillers from 1 to 5 wt.% in steps of 1 wt.% were used in this investigation. Density, tensile strength, microhardness, and thermal stability examination were performed as per ASTM standards. The morphology studies reveal that the basalt nanofillers were dispersed homogeneously in the neat epoxy polymer thermosetting matrix resulting in improved mechanical and thermal properties. The excessive addition of nanofiller results in the formation of agglomerated bundles which in turn reduce the thermomechanical properties

纳米玄武岩增强环氧纳米复合材料的热力学表征和形态分析

摘要 在这项研究中，纳米玄武岩增强纯环氧纳米复合材料已被制造。在该研究中使用纯环氧树脂以及从 1 到 5 重量％的纳米玄武岩填料的五种不同成分，以 1 重量％的步长。根据 ASTM 标准进行密度、拉伸强度、显微硬度和热稳定性检查。形态研究表明，玄武岩纳米填料均匀分散在纯环氧聚合物热固性基质中，从而提高了机械和热性能。过量添加纳米填料会导致形成团聚束，从而降低热机械性能
