Abstract
Composites have been used, more and more, in different areas of engineering. Therefore, the development of materials with distinct properties and behaviours for varied applications has to be done. In this paper, the dispersion of layered double hydroxides (LDH) will be evaluate in order to improve the epoxy properties with respect to flammability and strength. The new material was tested to verify if these properties were increased, for that, samples were made with LDH varying the percentage of weight of the LDH (0.2, 0.5 and 0.8%). In addition, to control the information, was made a group without LDH. The samples with LDH were made using a specific methodology, which will be describe in this paper. All samples were tested with for flammability and strength. With the test results, graphics were made to compare the differences between the materials. In addition, a fractography analysis was performed to identify any possible problem that occurred at the fracture surface.
