  Low-velocity Impact Studies on Glass Reinforced Composites Using Rubber Microparticles and Silica Nanoparticles Modified Epoxy Resin

  By Jitendra S Tate, Esmer Trevino, Swapnil Gaikwad, Stephen Sprenger, Isidro Rosas, Matt Andrews

  Abstract: Low velocity impact studies are conducted on +/−45º stitched bonded E-glass epoxy composites manufactured using vacuum assisted resin transfer molding (VARTM). Two sets of composites panels are produced – One using unmodified epoxy resin (control composites) and the other modified epoxy resin containing both rubber microparticles and silica nanoparticles (modified epoxy composites). Modified epoxy resin blend contained 6.5 wt% rubber microparticles and 8.1 wt% of silica nanoparticles. Studies include evaluation …
