Abstract Scope |
With population and technological advancement, studies involving plant materials
and waste have become essential. This article seeks to analyze and evaluate the
compressive properties of hybrid epoxy composites reinforced with açai and
chamotte in 6 different formulations, namely, 5% açai + 5% chamotte, 10% açai
+ 5% chamotte, 15% açai + 5% chamotte, 5% açai + 10% chamotte, 10% açai +
10% chamotte, 5% açai + 15% chamotte by volume incorporated into the epoxy
resin as a dispersed phase, with the aim of combining its mechanical properties
so that it can contribute to improving the performance of polymer composites
according to their formulation and use, and reduce the use of materials from
petroleum and thus contribute to the environment. The results showed that the
hybridization of açai and chamotte uses the combined properties hardener from
ceramic and flexibility from natural fibers. |
