Abstract

Cellulose-fibre-reinforced epoxy and vinyl-ester ecocomposites were fabricated in conjunction with inorganic nano-fillers. The effect of cellulose fibre and/or nano-filler dispersion on the mechanical properties of these composites has been characterized. The fracture surface morphology and toughness mechanisms were investigated by SEM. Results indicated that mechanical properties increased as a result of fibre and nano-filler additions. In particular, the presence of cellulose fibres significantly increased the mechanical properties of ecocomposites.
