Abstract
This article aims to present the study of effects of two additive materials to reinforce materials an epoxy resin matrix, a widely used thermosetting polymer. Epoxy is used in many applications nowadays, such as in fiber glass works, automotive parts, electrical electrodes, coating of surfaces and flooring materials. The first additive material is fly ash, a coal combustion by-products from power plants. The second material comprises Chain-like Carbon Nano-Onions (CLCNOs) which are synthesized from a flame burning process. Using strengthening advantages of fly ash (silica and alumina) and hardness from CLCNOs, the bulk volume, stiffness and hardness of the resin can be increased. These CLCNOs are new chain-structure Nano carbons with interesting mechanical properties in comparison with other additives or reinforced fibers.
