The epoxy resin is with the characteristics of high specific stiffness and specific strength so that it is widely used in such fields as the aerospace, automobile, construction and electronics. Its main disadvantage is brittleness so that the bending property of composite using it as the matrix is reduced. It is one approach for effectively solving this problem to use nano materials as the filler of epoxy resin. Therefore, the effects of hybrid filler composed of metallic nanoparticles and inorganic nanomaterials added into epoxy resin on bending property of epoxy resin matrix are mainly studied in this paper. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) test results showed that the hybrid filler composed of nano-Ti, nano-MoS2 and carbon nanofibers (CNFs) was physically adhered with epoxy resin matrix so that the bending property of epoxy resin matrix was significantly improved. The hybrid filler is prepared with nano materials of four different weight percentages (2%, 4%, 6% and 8%). Among these, the enhancement effect of hybrid filler with 4% of nano materials on bending property of epoxy resin matrix is optimum. The morphology characterization of crimped section is carried out with scanning electron microscope (SEM). The synergetic enhancement effects of different metallic nanoparticles and inorganic nano materials on resin matrix are deeply analyzed in this paper, which is hopeful to provide guidance for improving the bending property of resin matrix composite.
The industrial trial production of S420MLO hot-rolled high-strength low temperature resistant H beam for ocean engineering is carried out by Baotou Steel based on the industrial tests. The results showed that the yield strength of test steel was greater than 450 MPa and with certain surplus, its tensile strength was 615~628 MPa, average yield ratio was 0.75, elongation could reach over 26% as well as impact energy at -40 ℃ could meet standard requirement so that it is with excellent strength and toughness. The microstructure of test steel is mainly composed of ferrite and pearlite, the nano precipitated phase in matrix is with length of 100 nm and width of 20~30 nm, which could significantly improve the properties of steel. The S420MLO hot-rolled high-strength low temperature resistant H beam developed is with excellent comprehensive properties, which could provide the solid material support for safe service of such equipment as ocean platforms.
