摘要

Abstract

Epoxy resin (EP) is one of the most promising thermosetting resins used in engineering applications; however

its intrinsic drawbacks of poor abrasion resistance and flame retardancy limit its long-term application in harsh environments. In this study

to improve the comprehensive properties of EP

a prospective four-in-one strategy was proposed to prepare composites by rationally introducing multifunctional nanofillers. First

phosphorus- and nitrogen-enriched nickel/iron bimetallic phyllosilicates (PN-NiFePS) were facilely synthesized and subsequently incorporated into EP to prepare high-performance composites. The results indicate that PN-NiFePS nanoparticles display unique rice-grain-shaped morphologies with rough surfaces

as numerous PN-NiFePS nanosheets were vertically grown on the crystalline surface of the metal-organic framework. The chemically grafted P/N-containing pendant chains enabled well-bonded polymer-filler interfaces and homogeneous dispersion

significantly enhancing the mechanical properties. With the increase filler concentration

the wear rate exhibits a trend of initial decrease followed by subsequent increase

reaching a minimum of 1.19×10

-6

/(N·m) by adding 1% PN-NiFePS

which is 72% lower than pure EP. The incorporated PN-NiFePS endowed the composites with improved flame retardancy

leading to a steady increase in the limiting oxygen index and excellent self-extinguishing during combustion. This study provides an ingenious engineering strategy for constructing cross-function-integrated polymer composites suitabl

e for harsh environments.
