Modified resin specimens with 1, 3 and 5 wt. % of nanoclay contents were prepared and subjected to compressive tests according to ASTM D695. The static uniaxial compression testing were conducted at various temperatures ranging from room temperature (RT) to the temperature closer to its glass transition temperature Tg to study the effect of nanoclay fillers on the compressive stress-strain behaviour at high temperatures (room temperature, 35, 45, and 75°C). The mechanical properties of the nanomodified resin including the elastic modulus, maximum stress and failure strain were determined. The experimental results imply that adding these nanoclay fillers has enhanced the elastic modulus, compressive strength, and toughness without sacrificing the strain to failure and thermal stability of the unsaturated polyester. However it was found that generally, all specimens showed degradation in compressive strength with increases in temperatures. 2014-06-05T03:08:10Z 2014-06-05T03:08:10Z 2014-06 Article Applied Mechanics and Materials, vol. 554, 2014, pages 208-212 1660-9336 http://www.scientific.net/AMM.554.208 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/35100 10.4028/www.scientific.net/AMM.554.208 en Trans Tech Publications
