STUDY ON THE EFFECT OF NANOSILICA FILLER ON THE MECHANICAL AND THERMAL PROPERTIES OF PA610 PLASTIC

Abstract

In this paper, the influence of nanosilica on the mechanical and thermal
properties of PA610 plastic was investigated. The optimal content of nanosilica
was determined through the mechanical properties and morphological of
PA610/nanosilica nanocomposite. The results show that the maximum tensile
strength of nanocomposites with nanosilica content is 3%. At this content, the
thermal stability of PA610/nanosilica nanocomposite is significantly improved
compared to neat PA610, as shown by an increase in the decomposition onset
temperature of 23.43oC.
