Impact response of balsa core sandwiches
The benefits of resins nano-enhanced on the impact response of sandwich composites made by fiber glass/epoxy skins and balsa wood core were studied. Afterwards, the influence of the core's discontinuity was analyzed in terms of impact strength. For better dispersion and interface adhesion mat...

| description | The benefits of resins nano-enhanced on the impact response of sandwich composites made by
fiber glass/epoxy skins and balsa wood core were studied. Afterwards, the influence of the core's discontinuity
was analyzed in terms of impact strength. For better dispersion and interface adhesion matrix/clay nanoclays
were previously subjected to a silane treatment appropriate to the epoxy resin. Resins enhanced by nanoclays
promote higher maximum impact loads, lower displacements and the best performance in terms of elastic
recuperation. The core's discontinuity decreases the impact strength, but the resin enhanced by nanoclays promotes
significant benefits. |
