Abstract
BMI resin/graphite oxide nanocomposites were prepared via a solution intercalation method. The structures of the nanocomposites were studied using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The mechanical and tribological properties of the nanocomposites were investigated. In addition, the thermal behavior of the nanocomposites was characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Results show that BMI resin/graphite oxide exfoliated nanocomposites were successfully prepared. The addition of graphite oxide is beneficial to improve the mechanical and tribological properties of the nanocomposites. Moreover, the nanocomposites obtained exhibit good thermo-stability in comparison with neat BMI resin.
