Hybrid Composites Combining Short Deformable Fibers and Particulate Fillers in Polymeric Matrix
Smrčková, Markéta ; Pavelka,, Vladimír (referee) ; Poláček, Petr (advisor)
In this work, the effect of adding short deformable polyvinylalcohol fibers into dimethacrylate resins on mechanical properties of composite materials was investigated. Furthermore, micro- or nano-fillers were added into the matrix. The effect of filler/short fibers combination on mechanical properties of so-called hybrid composites was studied. Composites were characterized by differential compensation photocalorimetry (DPC), termogravimetric (TGA) and dynamic mechanical (DMA) analysis. The fracture surfaces were examined using scanning electron (SEM) and confocal laser (CLSM) microscopy. Elastic modulus and strength, the critical value of stress intensity factor and strain energy release rate and the viscoelastic properties of composite materials were measured. The mechanical properties of composite materials are affected not only by the type of filler/reinforcement, but also by properties of the matrix. These properties also depend on the way of network formation during photo-initiated polymerization. For this reason, heat of polymerization, degree of conversion and the maximum polymerization rate of mixture of dimethacrylate monomers were determined.

Fatigue characteristics of Metal Matrix Composites (MMC)
Judas, Jakub ; Věchet, Stanislav (referee) ; Zapletal, Josef (advisor)
This bachelor thesis is focused on analysis of fatigue characteristics of hybrid composite based on magnesium matrix QE22 reinforced with Al2O3 fibres and SiC particles. Test specimens of the composite material prepared by infiltration method were subjected to quasi-static tensile and compression test and discovered data were afterwards compared with the magnesium matrix. Cyclic response and low-cycle fatigue life were studied on the material under stress-control mode. All of the experiments were conducted at room temperature. Cyclic curves were fit with regression analysis in order to measure fatigue parameters of the hybrid composite. Cyclic and fatigue parameters were discussed and compared to similar magnesium alloy AZ91 reinforced with SiC particles.

Effect of preparation conditions on the structure and properties of hybrid light curing composites
Škriniarová, Nina ; Ing. Vladimír Pavelka. Ph.D. (referee) ; Jančář, Josef (advisor)
The purpose of this thesis was to implement and evaluate series of experiments focused on the impact of mixing conditions and component dispensing on the structure and properties of hybrid polymer composite materials for resistant dental fillings. There were suggested some preparation methods and subsequently some mechanical properties of prepared samples were measured. Short non-formable polymer fibers in combination with filler particles of various particle sizes were added into the matrix. As matrix a polymer, light curable monomer mixture based on urethandimethacrylate and dodecandioldimethacrylate was used. Tensile deformation curves of prepared samples were measured. Morphology of prepared composites was observed by surface fractography using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Samples were evaluated by comparing of tensile curves and morphology observed on SEM slides. The best way of component mixing and dispensing was evaluated based on comparison of experiment results and properties predicted by existed models.

Hybrid composite based on dental matrix
Almásyová, Zuzana ; Bystřický, Zdeněk (referee) ; Přikryl, Radek (advisor)
This bachelor´s thesis deals with the study of the effect of alumina fillers addition on mechanical properities of experimental composite based dimethacrylate matrix. Important properities and aspects of particle composite, composite mechanics and surface treatments methods were described in the theoretical section of this work. As a studied system was dimethacrylate matrix with micro-filler in form of barium glass and nano-filler in form of alumina. The filler was modified by two silanization methods. Surface treatment of the filler was studied by termogravimetry and infrared spectroscopy. Morphology of fracture areas was examined using scanning electron microscopy with the aim to characterize dispersion of particles in the matrix. Mechanical properties of prepared composite materials were established by the testing of the flexural properties. The best silanization method of particular filler was determined. The addition of alumina had a negative effect on the resulting mechanical properties of prepared composite.
