Intrinsically Survivable Structural Composite Materials

Abstract

Three aspects of nanocomposite materials were examined in this project: spherical silicates, commercial layered silicates, and synthetically modified layered silicates. Aerospace epoxy resins were used throughout with primary focus on the resin transfer molding (RTM) grade Epon 862/Cure W.
