Abstract

Fiber reinforced polymer has been used in a broad scope of engineering equipment due to its outstanding advantages. This study investigated the effect of glass powder filler in the matrix modification of glass fiber reinforced polymer that can be further applied for hard structures. The composites were manufactured using a vacuum-assisted resin infusion method with 0, 2,5, 5, and 7,5 wt percentages of glass powder filler. The results have shown that adding glass powder filler in glass fiber reinforced polymer modifies the physical characteristics and enhances the mechanical properties compared to the neat composite. The failure mechanism obtained from the fracture surface investigation demonstrates bridging mechanisms formed effect of glass powder filler addition in the glass fiber reinforced polymer. The strengthening mechanism is formed to enhance the interfacial bonding between the fiber and the matrix. The results reveal the optimum filler addition percentage at 2,5 wt%. Adding 2,5 wt% glass powder filler enhances the flexural strength and interlaminar shear strength by 18,86% and 19,54%, respectively. The glass powder addition offers higher resistance to interlaminar damage. Additional glass powder with a higher weight percentage above the threshold induced microvoid and agglomeration phenomenon.

期刊介绍： Journal of Engineering Research (JER) is a international, peer reviewed journal which publishes full length original research papers, reviews, case studies related to all areas of Engineering such as: Civil, Mechanical, Industrial, Electrical, Computer, Chemical, Petroleum, Aerospace, Architectural, Biomedical, Coastal, Environmental, Marine & Ocean, Metallurgical & Materials, software, Surveying, Systems and Manufacturing Engineering. In particular, JER focuses on innovative approaches and methods that contribute to solving the environmental and manufacturing problems, which exist primarily in the Arabian Gulf region and the Middle East countries. Kuwait University used to publish the Journal "Kuwait Journal of Science and Engineering" (ISSN: 1024-8684), which included Science and Engineering articles since 1974. In 2011 the decision was taken to split KJSE into two independent Journals - "Journal of Engineering Research "(JER) and "Kuwait Journal of Science" (KJS).
