Abstract
The aim of this research article is to discuss the mechanical performance of WS2-Epoxy composite with varying % vol.of WS2. Studies were carried out with epoxy (ARL136+ AH-126) composite system consisting of Tungsten disulphide (WS2) as filler. The samples tested consist of bisphenol-A based epoxy liquid resin and Lapox AH-126 hardener with varying tungsten disulphide (WS2). Appropriately cured samples gave excellent mechanical properties. Results showed that the tensile strength of the composites increased with increase in filler content for the range of filler contents (2.5-4 % vol.) and decreased with increase in the filler contents 5% vol. onwards. The result indicated that at 3% of filler concentration the tensile strength obtained is good with moderate density and hardness.
