Abstract

This paper reviews a literature survey on the usage of volcanic particle materials as an alternative filler material in polymer composites. Also, it highlights different types of volcanic particle materials and their potential effect on the performance of polymer composites. The review begins with Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis of different volcanic materials. Then, it reviews the thermal and mechanical properties of polymer composites that filled with different volcanic particle materials such as volcanic ash, pumice, perlite, and tuff. Reviewed articles have demonstrated that volcanic particle materials can serve as a polymer composite filler. However, there are several factors such as volcanic particle type, size, surface treatment, dispersion, filler concentration, and interfacial interaction with polymer matrix that should be considered and optimized to achieve a balanced polymer composite with its desired properties. Further, the review provides some insights on the gap in the research of volcanic particle material in polymer composites. In particular, the research of volcanic particle materials in different kind of polymers especially bio-based and recycled ones according to the cost-effective and green applications was suggested to be focused.
