The effect of silica microparticles and maleic anhydride on the physic-mechanical properties of epoxy matrix phase
Thermoset polymers, especially epoxy resin, have been applied in several industrial applications in which high stiffness and adhesive strength are demanded. On the other hand, epoxy resin is rather brittle and has poor fracture toughness. For this reason, the addition of fibres/particles into thermo...
