Tatejt31@txstate.edu<p>The rise in demand and interest in lightweight offshore structures for marine, defense, automotive, and aerospace applications require nanoparticle enhancement of fiber-reinforced composite materials. When exposed to low-velocity Impact during service, these materials experience drastic changes and degradation in their macro-and microstructures. Therefore, it is critical to have a detailed comprehension of these materials' mechanical behavior and failure mechanisms. Within the scope of the current study, low-velocity impact behavior of glass fiber/polyester composites modified with vinyl trimethoxy silane treated alumina nanofibers at 0.25wt%, 0.5wt%, 0.75wt% and 1wt% loading levels are investigated. Impact responses, such as the contact force, displacement, and absorbed energy, at four impact energies of 135J, 170J, 205J, and 240J, are determined and compared. Peak load enhancement was observed for vinyl trimethoxy silane-treated alumina nanofibers with increasing loading levels in the composites. The laminate stiffness response was low at lower energy levels, with higher stiffness values at higher loading levels. It was observed that 0.25wt%, 0.50wt%, and 0.75wt% loading levels of vinyl silane-treated alumina nanofibers modified composites observed DTL after reaching the peak load, indicating maximum energy absorption without reduction in impact strengths.</p>2024-02-05T09:20:33+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 International Journal of Composite and Constituent Materialshttps://materials.journalspub.info/index.php?journal=JCCM&page=article&op=view&path%5B%5D=1006Assessment of Polymer Nanocomposite for Packaging Uses and Concerns about Environmental and Health Effects2024-02-26T06:43:00+00:00Haydar Zamanhaydarzaman07@gmail.comA nanocomposite material is composed of several phases with at least one, two, or three dimensions in the nanoscale range. When material dimensions are lowered to the nanoscale, phase interfaces are created, and they are essential for enhancing the material's characteristics. The surface area to volume ratio of the reinforced material used to create nanocomposites has a direct bearing on how structure and property relate to one another. Due to their remarkable property combinations and unusual design feasibility, polymer nanocomposites have recently gained a lot of research interest due to their intriguing potential for a variety of packaging, sports equipment, automotive industry, and bio-medical applications. In order to maintain these property improvements, polymer nanocomposites have attracted more attention in both academic and industry sectors. Polymeric nanocomposites offer a number of benefits over conventional materials, including light weighting, flexibility, ease of manufacturing, and low cost of the finished product. The packing properties of polymer-based nanocomposites are greatly improved due to their outstanding nanoparticle dispersion tendencies. Additionally, the viability of adding biologically active additives has demonstrated enormous potentials for giving the finished product improved functional qualities. As a result, polymer nanocomposites with bio-functional tendencies have shown a wide range of potential uses as packaging materials in the functional food packaging sector. This is because the material's properties have steadily improved, such as increased strength and modulus, decreased gas permeability, and increased water resistance. As a result, the current study examines current state-of-the-art newly emerging trends in the manufacture and characterization of polymer nanocomposites as eco-friendly and biodegradable packaging materials, as well as their potential future market prospects.2024-02-05T09:21:34+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 International Journal of Composite and Constituent Materialshttps://materials.journalspub.info/index.php?journal=JCCM&page=article&op=view&path%5B%5D=1018Bio-based Composites for Sustainable Construction2024-02-26T06:43:00+00:00Deepa Gautamdeepagautam5331@gmail.com<p>Bio-based composites are gaining significant attention as sustainable construction materials due to their eco-friendly nature and potential to reduce the environmental impact of traditional construction materials.
