The purpose is to determine how the blend’s composition and the addition of DPF affect the material’s thermal, water absorption, and viscoelastic properties. It was found that water absorption increases with the increase of flexible epoxy content. The incorporation of DPF multiplies the water absorption by about 6. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) revealed that the maximum degradation temperature (T<sub>max</sub>) increases with increasing flexible epoxy content. The incorporation of DPF causes a slight decrease in T<sub>max</sub>. Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) showed that raising the amount of flexible epoxy reduces the storage modulus (E’) while expanding the size of the transition zone. Conversely, the incorporation of DPF increases E’ over the studied temperature range. Similarly, increasing the percentage of flexible resin decreases the glass transition temperature (Tg) from 65.15 °C (100% rigid) to 29.75 °C (100% flexible). On the other hand, the incorporation of DPF improves the Tg. Isochronous stress-strain curves revealed that, at room temperature, the R50S50 epoxy (50% flexible + 50% rigid) and the R50S50R composite (R50S50 + 30% DPF) have linear viscoelastic behavior for tensile stress of 0.5 MPa and nonlinear one for higher stresses.

The utilization of this technology significantly enhances the optimization of treatment protocols and the preservation of temperature levels within crucial anatomical regions of the human body.

This study evaluates the mechanical, durability, and corrosion resistance characteristics of hybrid combinations of nickel–titanium (Ni–Ti) SMA fibers and steel fibers in mortar. Three hybrid fiber combinations (GH1-75% steel fiber+ 25% SMA fiber, GH2-50% steel fiber+50% SMA fiber, and GH3-25% steel fiber+75% SMA fiber) were investigated in this study, with a total of 0.50% fiber volume ratio. To enhance the durability properties of the mortar, ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) was used as a partial replacement for cement. The engineering properties of these hybrid fiber combinations in GGBS mortar were evaluated through compressive strength, flexural strength, and split tensile strength. Durability features were assessed based on acid, sulfate, chloride, and marine water resistance. The results showed that the hybrid mix with a greater quantity of steel fiber (GH1) had superior mechanical properties due to the steel fiber’s greater modulus of elasticity. However, when exposed to an aggressive environment, the hybrid combination with a greater quantity of Ni–Ti SMA fibers (GH3) in mortar showed higher durability and corrosion resistance.
