Abstract

A graded distribution of graphite particles in epoxy resin matrix was obtained using a centrifugation technique.By varying the centrifugation time the graded profile could be effectively controlled. Scanning electron microscopy and optical microscopy revealed the graded dispersion of graphite particles in the epoxy matrix, which is sensitive to centrifugation time. Electrical or wear properties can accurately estimate the property profile of graded material. The abrasive wear test also provided a quick estimation of the extent of gradient formed in the sample. The increased centrifugation time increased the compaction of graphite particles in the graphite-rich phase of graded material that could be correlated with the increased capacitance of the sample.
