Influence of modified natural zeolite on the thermal stability of epoxy based composites

Abstract

The effect of modified natural zeolite of the Shivyrtuysky deposits on the thermal behavior of epoxy composites at the heating was studied. The modification of the zeolite particles with aluminum oxyhydroxide (AlOOH) nanofibers was made. AlOOH nanofibers were obtained at the heating and oxidation of aluminum powder by water. The parameters of thermal-oxidative and thermal destruction of the samples with a filler concentration of 1, 2, 5, and 10 wt. % were determined. The limiting oxygen index was determined by the calculation method.
