  By J. Srinivas, K. Raja Karthikeyan, T. S. Senthil, K. Yesuraj, K.S. Jai Aultrin

  Abstract: This study examines the mechanical and viscoelastic properties of polymer composites reinforced with ceramic nanoparticles, specifically focusing on enhancing the performance of the material through the incorporation of alumina nanoparticles. The composites were produced by embedding alumina nanoparticles into an epoxy matrix, and their properties were assessed using tensile, flexural, and dynamic mechanical analyses (DMA). The tensile tests showed a remarkable 40% increase in tensile strength and a 35% enhancement …
