DEVELOPMENT OF A PARTICULATE POLYMER COMPOSITE CONTAINING SILICON CARBIDE
Composites, polyester, polyurethane, SiC, particulate, compressive strength.
This study evaluates the mechanical properties of polyester and polyurethane matrix composites based on castor oil, reinforced with different mass fractions (5% and 15%) of silicon carbide (SiC) grains with different sizes (37µm and 53µm) and shapes (sub-angular and angular) through a complete factorial analysis of 2¹4¹ order.
