Abstract | ||
This paper covers the effect of nanocarbon black powder (N220) on the some physical properties (thermal conductivity and water absorption) of unsaturated and epoxy resins filled with nanocarbon black powder (N220). The polymer nanocomposites, were prepared with (1 to 10 wt%) of carbon black nanoparticles using ultrasonic wave bath machine dispersion method. The results had shown thermal conductivity of unsaturated and epoxy resins improved by (131.37% and 78%) respectively, at 10wt. %. The water absorption reduction by (55.41% at 4 wt.%, 51.76% at 6 wt.%) for unsaturated polyester and epoxy nanocomposite, respectively. | ||
