Abstract

In this work, different weight percentages of Nano-ZnO were added to epoxy resin to enhance its strength and the water aging property. Meanwhile, the wear testing was using to evaluate the adhesive strength between the Nano-ZnO and epoxy resin. The composites were placed in a water bath at 80 for more than 100 days to accelerate the aging process. Using the strength reduction of the composite to characterize the aging properties. The results showed that the suitable addition of Nano-ZnO may effectively improve the strength of the composites, and reduce the strength loss of the composites caused by wet and heat aging. Under the water-heat environment, besides the strength of the epoxy resin, the interface bonding strength between the Nano-ZnO and the matrix resin was also reduced.
