Abstract | The flexural properties of SLG filled phenolic composites have been determined in previous study. It is time consuming to prepare the samples for the tests. In addition, it is even more time consuming to carry out the tests and analyze the results. It is therefore necessary to develop a mathematical model that will predict the flexural properties of particulate filled phenolic composites. Mathematical models for tensile strength, Young’s modulus are available but not for impact strength, flexural strength and fracture toughness. There is no sign that it can be built up from simple mathematical model; polynomial interpolation using Lagrange’s method was therefore employed to generate the flexural properties model using the data obtained from experiments. From experiments, it was found that the trend of the flexural properties of the samples post-cured conventionally was similar to that post-cured in microwaves; it is therefore possible to predict the flexural properties of the samples post-cured in microwaves from the mathematical model generated for flexural properties of samples post-cured in a conventional oven. The workload is therefore halved as the process of generating the mathematical was much faster and simpler. |
