Abstract

In this study was investigated the effects of additives of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and recycled material obtained by chemical degradation of waste tires (rubber particles) on the effect of characteristic properties E-glass/epoxy composite materials. The chemical degradation method is the novel method. This novel method that has been discovered is more advantageous than other methods (pyrolysis and devulcanization). The characteristic properties of the composite materials at rates of 0.1-0.2-0.3-0.5-1-2.0% wt. MWCNT filled and unfilled were investigated. This study consisted of two phases, being the production of the composite materials and the determination of mechanical, morphological and functional properties of the materials produced. As a result, both the additives increased the strength of the composite material. It was demonstrated via scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analyses that carbon-based additives obtained by degradation of waste tires failed to bond to epoxy resin on composite material.

Geri Dönüştürülmüş Kauçuk Parçacıkları ve Çoğul Duvarlı Karbon Nanotüpler ile Modifiye Edilmiş E-cam/Epoksi’nin Karakterizasyonu

Abstract

Bu çalışmada E-cam/epoksi kompozit malzemelere atık laztiklerden kimyasal bozundurma ile geri dönüştürülmüş partiküller ile çoğul duvarlı karbon nanotüpler eklenmiş ve bu partiküllerin E-cam/epoksilerin karakteristik özelliklerine etkileri araştırılmıştır. Kimyasal bozunma yöntemi yeni bir yöntemdir. Keşfedilen bu yeni yöntem, diğer yöntemlerden piroliz ve devukanizasyondan daha avantajlıdır. Kompozit malzemelerin karakteristik özellikleri % 0-0,1-0,2-0,3-0,5-1-2 partikül katkı oranlarında araştırıldı. Bu çalışma kompozit malzemelerin üretimi ve üretilen malzemelerin mekanik, morfolojik ve fonksiyonel özelliklerinin belirlenmesi olmak üzere iki aşamalıdır. Sonuç olarak her iki katkı maddeside kompozitin mukavemetini arttırmıştır. Taramalı electron mikroskonu (SEM) ve fourier dönüşümlü kızılötesi spektroskopisi (FITR) analizleri ile atık lastiklerin bozunması ile elde edilen karbon bazlı katkı maddelerinin kompozit üzerinde reçineye bağlanmadığı görülmüştür.
