Summary

The composites reported on this work have been ready from poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) as polymeric matrix and boron carbide nanoparticles as filler utilizing answer casting methodology. The synthesized composites have been characterised utilizing common testing machine, thermogravimetry, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The impact of filler focus on the varied key properties of the resultant composites was investigated. The outcomes revealed that by rising the focus of the filler, the mechanical energy and thermal stability elevated. The outcomes indicated that filler when utilized in 20 wt% focus precipitated enhancements within the thermal and mechanical properties of the composite together with Younger’s modulus and tensile energy. The composites ready utilizing filler in optimum focus (20 wt%) have been additional characterised utilizing FTIR, XRD and SEM. The outcomes inferred that the synthesized composites may obtain candidature to be used in various purposes.
