Experimental Analysis of Mechanical and Thermal Characteristics of Luffa/Epoxy Polymer Composite under the Influence of Nanosilica

In the current work, experimentations have been accomplished to assess impact of diffusing nanosilica particles in epoxy matrix on mechanical and thermal performance luffa fibre reinforced composite material. The composition are fixed as 80 : 20 throughout study, is disbanded diversified volume fractions 0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0%, 2.5%, respectively, while preparing luffa/epoxy/nanosilica (LES) samples. characteristics, such tensile, flexural, behaviour composite, properties, namely, stability conductivity, examined for LES experiments per ASTM standards. results revealed that assimilation has improved characteristics significantly. strength amended by 157.58%, 66.9%, 16.5% with 1.5% addition epoxy. Similarly, conductivity 47.53% dispersion 2.5% matrix. addition, samples substantially disbanding However, better reported composites containing content, compared next higher content
