Description
Composites based on thermosetting polymers (epoxy, polyester, and vinyl ester resins) with incorporated carbon particles have been developed. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) and amorphous carbon, a waste by-product from the production of “green” hydrogen, were used.
The influence of different concentrations (0.02 wt%, 0.06 wt%, 0.1 wt%, 1 wt%, and 2 wt%) of both types of particles on the mechanical properties of the developed composites was investigated, and a comparative analysis was performed.
