On the pseudo-ductility of nanostructured epoxy resins

Published: Sep 1, 2019
Abstract
The main goal of this work is to enlighten the common misinterpretation of “plastic” deformation in thermoset polymers by exploring the concept of pseudo-ductility. To do so, different nanostructured epoxy resins were manufactured by using different nanoparticles and a block copolymer, in different amounts, and then submitted to tensile tests. The results showed that rigid nanoparticles are able to increase the stiffness and strength in 16% and...
