Abstract

Elastic properties of epoxy-based nanocomposites (ENCs) filled with bare and TiO₂-deposied multi-layered graphene nanoplatelets (MLG) have been tested by using a phase-frequency continuous-wave ultrasound probing (USP). The dian epoxy CHS-EPOXY 520 curried with diethylenetriamine (DETA) was the polymer matrix for the nanocomposites. The nanoplatelets of the specific surface area S_f ~ 790 m²/g consist of several dozen loosely bound monoatomic graphene layers with an area of about least 5×5 μm². MLG-mass-loading (φ_f,m) of the nanocomposites varied from 0.1 % to 5.0 % by weight. Anatase- TiO₂ particles, being of about 50 nm in diameter and of S_f ~ 1500 m²/g, have been deposited on MLG in mass concentration of about 1 %. Elastic moduli of the ENCs (namely, the Lame’s constants, the Young’s module, the compression module, and the Poisson’s ratio) have demonstrated negligible variation with φ_f,m varying regardless the type of filling particles. However, MLG:TiO₂-hybrid nanoparticles have proven to impact stronger on the moduli as compared to bare MLG. This result shows a capability to modify molecular structure of epoxy resins by controlling surface reactivity of MLG embedded in the resin.
