Hamid M. Mahan, Dawood S. Mahjoob, Nadhir Abd. Rashid
Abstract

The research aims to study the mechanical properties included hardness test, impact strength and tensile strength of epoxy resin with reinforced by silica or Nano alumina particles or both, and reinforced with glass fibers, The Glass fiber used of the form woven mat. Results indicated that glass fiber enhanced the impact energy and tensile strength after reinforced by silica, Nano alumina, and glass fiber, With the decrease of hardness values of fiber glass when adding silica and Nano-alumina.
