Impacts of Goat Horn/Ammonium Polyphosphate on Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Epoxy Composites

Engineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2025.
Ammonium polyphosphate (APP) is mixed with epoxy to fabricate APP/epoxy goat horn nanocomposites. Both mechanical and thermal properties of APP/epoxy goat horn nanocomposites are assessed where the lower percentage of water absorption in composites can be attributed to the improved interfacial bonding between the fibers and matrix.
