Effect of tetraethoxysilane on the dimensional stability and static bending properties of nanocellulose, tannin, and activated carbon mixed with epoxy resin

Static bending strength and dimensional stability of epoxy composite is an important property for most of the structural applications. Types of filler used with addition of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) in the epoxy system might improve the properties of the composite. In this research paper, two types of epoxy composites were prepared: the first batch involved epoxy resin mixed with three different fillers; nanocellulose, tannin, and activated...
