Abstract

Mechanical Properties of Epoxy / Chitosan Biocomposites

Author(s): V. Selvam, M. Suresh Chandra Kumar and M. Vadivel

Completely biodegradable epoxy/ chitosan biocomposites were prepared. The structure of epoxy resin, chitosan and epoxy/chitosan biocomposite were confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopy. The effect of inclusion of different weight percentage of chitosan in epoxy on tensile properties and water absorption behavior were studied. Morphologies of the fract ured surfaces of epoxy/chitosan biocomposites were observed by scanning electron microscope.
