| Abstract | In this study, the in situ incorporation of the inorganic alumina nanoparticles into the reactants of tetraglycidyl-4, 4′-diaminodiphenylmethane (TGDDM) epoxy resin represented an efficient way for the preparation of alumina/TGDDM nanocomposite. The surface modification of the alumina nanoparticles was carried out using two individual silane coupling agents, namely, aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APS) and glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPS). The degree of silane grafting was evaluated for both coupling agents using FTIR spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. The epoxy equivalent weight (EEW) of the epoxy resin in addition to the weight percentage of the lost nanoparticles during TGDDM polymerization was used as measurements of the polymerization yield. The neat nano alumina has more adverse effect on the epoxy EEW value (171 g/mol) than both silane-modified nano alumina (143–157 g/mol, depending on the reaction conditions). The degree of nano alumina dispersion in the epoxy matrix was investigated using SEM micrographs. The longer and more deflected crack pathways on the fractured surface of the alumina/TGDDM nanocomposites may be attributed to a relatively good degree of dispersion of the silane-modified alumina nanoparticles in the epoxy matrix. Compared to neat alumina, the better dispersion of the silane-modified alumina nanoparticles may be related to the improved interfacial interactions between the oxiran or amine groups available on the silane-modified alumina nanoparticles and the TGDDM epoxy functional groups. Besides, the higher exothermic heat of cure (i.e., 30–53 %) as evidenced in differential scanning calorimetry may be due to a rather good state of dispersion of silane-modified alumina nanoparticles. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
