ABSTRACT


Fly ash utilization has always been a major concern because of pollution aspects and requirement of large area of land for disposal. Construction industry use fly ash partly for cement and bricks. Polymer composites are the novel material which can utilize fly ash as a potential material for filler in manufacturing of cost-effective epoxy composites for diverse applications. Researchers has shown that this material may be utilized to improve the thermal and mechanical characteristics of epoxy composites which can be employed in different sectors like automotive, aeronautical, semi-structural etc. Proper surface modification of fly ash can significantly improves the adhesion between matrix and filler and properties of epoxy composites reinforced with fly ash. This work reviews the recent developments in surface treatment and utilization of fly ash mediated Epoxy composites.
