Effect of Nanoclay Loading on the Hardness Property of Epoxy Composites

Egere B.C*, Yusuf L.O, Abdulkadir Suleiman Abdulrahman

This study examines the influence of nanoclay loading on the hardness properties of epoxy composites. Nanocomposites were fabricated using varying weight percentages of nanoclay and epoxy via the hand layup method with an open mould. Mechanical characterisation was carried out using a Rockwell hardness tester, while the dispersion and morpholog...

Physical and Mechanical Properties of Filler Loading on Low- Density Polyethylene/Doum Fibre Composite

Abdulkadir S. A*, Wakala B, Okpanachi C B, Muktari S, Egere B.C, Yusuf L.O

This study investigates the physical and mechanical properties of low-density polyethylene (LDPE)/doum fibre composites with varying filler loadings. Six composite samples were fabricated using a metal mould of dimensions 120 × 120 × 3 mm, with LDPE and doum fibre mixed in ratios of 100:0, 90:10, 80:20, 70:30, 60:40, and 50:50. Processing was...
