Flexural analysis of graphene oxide infused S2-glass/epoxy nanocomposite laminates

摘要: Abstract In recent times, nanotechnology has emerged as one of the key driving factors in technological and scientific advancements around globe. The material property enhancement is towards various applications nanotechnology. incorporation nanoparticles into a matrix standard can enhance specific mechanical thermal properties. Graphene oxide such compound with excellent dispersibility that widely used to properties certain ceramics polymers. main objective this study was determine variation flexural S-2 glass/epoxy nanocomposite laminates different concentrations ranging from 2% 8% graphene (w/w %) using finite element analysis (FEA). test specimen layup selected 0/45/-45/90/90/-45/45/0 (8 layers). setup for FEA dimensions were according ASTM D790 three-point bending test. It observed enhances strength up 6% concentration. strengths 2%, 4% increased by 10%, 57% 80% respectively respect pure laminate. This prove be extremely beneficial aerospace structural applications.
