Mechanical Characterization of Glass Fiber Reinforced Polyester Composites Modified with Silane Treated Alumina NanofibersBy Jitendra S Tate, Harish Kallagunta
Abstract: Alumina nanofibers pristine and vinyl silane treated are used as nanofillers in polyester matrix reinforced with woven glass fibers at loading levels of 0.25 w%, 0.5 wt%, 0.75 wt%, and 1.00 wt% and the static mechanical properties are evaluated. The effect of silane treatment on the mechanical behavior, interface damage behavior for these composites is compared. The tensile strength of composites increased with addition of alumina nanofibers and a consistent …

Feasibility Study of Thermoplastic nanocomposites for ESD Applications Using Additive manufacturingBy Sagar V. Naval, Jitendra Tate, Harish Kallagunta
Abstract: This research aims at developing a polyamide 6 nanocomposite with good combination of electrical resistivity and structural integrity that can be utilized for electrostatic discharge applications. Polyamide 6 modified with 3wt%, 5wt% and 7wt% graphene nanoplatelets (NGP) were melt blended using a co-rotating twin screw extruder and filaments of size 1.75mm were obtained. The specimens were printed using fused deposition modelling technique according to standards for electrical resistivity and tensile …
