Abstract
Tensile strength, Young modulus, impact strength, creep resistance, recovery measures, and thermal conductivity are used to evaluate the polymer matrix composite containing ceramic particles as degradation of spongy iron by oxidation to a ferric oxide which is used in steelmaking and low-density polyethylene. The results reveal that the mechanical and thermal properties are affected by the ratio of filler particles (360 μm). Six specimens were prepared and tested in time-dependent conditions at a constant temperature. As a result, increasing the filler ratio added to low-density polyethylene does not accelerate creep with nonlinear viscoelastic behavior. The composite with 0.7 percent ferric oxide particles was found to have the best thermal and mechanical qualities.
