Properties of Epoxy Composites with Halloysite Nanotubes Subjected to Tensile Testing
For the rational consumption of resources, humanity needs to invest in the creation of new composite materials. The main properties of new composites should exceed traditional ones by 4 times, and the energy consumption during their production should be reduced by 2 times. The relevance of this work lies in the search for technological solutions that can lead to the creation of new composite materials. Objective of the study: obtaining an epoxy composite with increased mechanical properties under tension using a biocompatible nanoscale filler-halloysite nanotubes (HNTs). The samples were made and tested according to the national standard of the Russian Federation GOST R 56800-2015. The current study provides an analysis of the tensile properties of the resulting composites in comparison with the literature. For the epoxy base, an epoxy composition similar to the literature was adopted. The following results were obtained: uniaxial tensile strength was improved by +18.19%, elastic modulus—by +6.54%, elongation decreased by −15.57% in samples containing 10 wt% halloysite. HNTs are also effective as a filler for epoxy composition. The research results presented in this article can serve as early support and reference materials for the creation of new epoxy-based composites using a tubular nanosized halloysite clay filler.
