Abstract

This study compares the tensile and flexural properties of Sio2 & Zirconia /epoxy polymer nanocomposites. Dispersion of Sio2 & Zirconia nanoparticles in the epoxy polymer was achieved by ultrasonic mixing. Sio2 & Zirconia /epoxypolymer nanocomposites contain varying amount of nano size Sio2 & Zirconia up to 4wt.%& 3wt.% respectively. The tensile test and three-point bending test were performed to obtain the tensile strength and the flexural properties of nanocomposites respectively by different researchers. The investigated properties of Sio2 & Zirconia /epoxy polymer nanocomposites increase with the increasing other nanoparticles dispersion like as silicon oxide nanoparticles and deterioration in the mechanical properties is realized above wt.%. This may be due to the significant increase in agglomeration and settlement of the Sio2 & Zirconia nanoparticles during the long curing time. This paper also reviews the mechanical and biological properties of different nanopowder material used during composite fabrication. It has been investigate that the mechanical properties (hardness, fracture toughness, Young’s modulus, and compressive strength), and biological properties (biocompatibility and bio- activity) of zirconia and silicon dioxide are favorable for the biomedical implant.
