- Abstract
GFRP composite has become an alternative material for various engineering applications due to its outstanding characteristics. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact properties of GFRP composites in relation to the addition of sodium silicate (SS) and nano active filler pumice particle (nAFPP). The hand lay-up method, followed by the press mold process was performed to create the composite with the content of 20 wt% glass fiber content (chopped strand mat and woven roving mat) with the addition of 10 wt% fillers (combination of nAFPP and SS) with the unsaturated polyester matrix. An izod impact tester was used to test the mechanical properties of composite specimens and SEM images were taken of their failure surfaces. The result shows that the GFRP composite with 10 wt% of nAFPP (0% of SS) has the highest impact strength among other filled composites, and the lowest is the composite containing the combination of 5 wt% of nFPP and 5 wt% SS. The composite with the highest impact strength also demonstrates good interfacial bonding between the matrix and fibers. The low impact strength of the composite is due to the occurrence of particle agglomeration.
