- Description
- The boosting of electrical and microelectronic goods causes the continuous increase in the amount of power per unit volume of these gadgets, leading to unavoidable overheating problems that diminish their functional performance as well as life span. One of the primary aims of materials science is the creation of high-performance materials that are made from renewable resources. Multi-phase composites were recognised as an effective route to achieve a new portfolio of advanced materials with superior performance. Some of the functional fillers in polymer-based composite materials exhibit outstanding electrical insulation, chemical resistance, mechanical and processing properties, and therefore are considered to be the most promising candidates to solve the heat dissipation problem. In this research article, the thermal behavior, namely Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-Ray Diffraction Analysis (XRD), and Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) of hybrid nano-sized hydroxyapatite filled hybrid fiber reinforced epoxy nanocomposites are investigated. Three important parameters were examined at 1 Hz frequency: storage modulus, loss modulus, and damping, all from room temperature to 160 C. The influence of the nHAP loading on the dynamic mechanical properties are discussed and explained with the highly relevant works from the available literature. In particular, the dependence of the hybrid composite damping on the nHAP loading was explained with regard to damping due to particleparticle and polymer-fiber interaction. The presence of nHAP is confirmed by a wider XRD curve, and the incorporation of nHAP results in the removal of the hydroxy group from the fibers as shown by FTIR. The inclusion of nHAP in a hybrid (S + B/Ep) composite enhances the synergetic effect, which raises the storage and loss modulus, decreases the damping factor, and increases the Tg of the nHAP filled hybrid nanocomposites. 2021
