Mechanical properties of an epoxy composite coating containing linseed oil-filled microcapsules, and clay and zirconia nanoparticles

This paper considers the effects of simultaneous addition of microcapsules and nanoparticles on the mechanical properties of a self-healable epoxy coating. A model nano-composite coating was prepared via addition of 1 wt% APS treated nano-ZrO2 and 1 wt % nano-clay particles to epoxy resin. 5 wt % linseed oil-filled microcapsules with average diameter of 72 μm were added into the epoxy resin. Mechanical properties of the prepared samples containing nanoparticles and microcapsules were evaluated via tensile strength measurements and DMTA
