Reinforcing fibers such as glass, graphite and polyamide improve mechanical properties to such an extent that epoxies can be used in many structural applications. Other non-reinforcing fillers include:
Applications
- Electropole
- Powdered metals to improve electrical and thermal conductivity
- Alumina for thermal conductivity
- Silica for cost reduction, and strength enhancement
- Mica – electrical resistance
- Talc and calcium carbonate – cost reduction
- Carbon and graphite powders to increase lubricity
