Abstract

Journal of Composite Materials, Ahead of Print.
This paper deals with the improvement of fracture properties of epoxy nanocomposites using graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets. Epoxy/GO samples were fabricated in the form of compact tension shear (CTS) at filler contents of 0, 0.25 and 0.5 wt.%. Using Arcan ...
