Proposed new methods for modifying the mechanical characteristics of the artificial stone

In this paper, factors affecting the mechanical properties of polymeric granite artificial stone have been investigated. Epoxy resin and three types of additives called Poly ether ether ketone, Silicon rubber, and Nanoclay have been used to make the artificial stone. Unlike previous research on resi...

These samples are compared with the control sample and the sample with optimal mechanical characteristics. The method of making artificial stone is that crushed stone blend with resin, and is molded into molds that are defined according to the American Association of Materials and Testing.
