The effect of montmorillonite (MMT) nano-clay as reinforcement in unsaturated polyester resin (UP) matrix composite was investigated under compression loading to explore the impact of MMT nano-clay wt% in the compressive behavior of UP-MMT nano-clay composite. UP-MMT nano-clay composite samples were...
