Abstract

L’invention concerne un matériau composite, comprenant au moins un matériau de base et au moins un mélange de poudre-matière de remplissage réparti dans le matériau de base. Le mélange de poudre-matière de remplissage comprenant une fraction de poudre-matière de remplissage et au moins une autre fraction de poudre-matière de remplissage, la fraction de poudre-matière de remplissage présentant un diamètre de particule de poudre moyen (D50) choisi dans la plage de 1 µm à 100 µm et un pourcentage total de matière de remplissage (taux de remplissage) du mélange poudre-matière de remplissage dans le matériau composite étant de plus de 50 % en poids. Le matériau composite est caractérisé en ce que l’autre fraction de poudre-matière de remplissage présente un autre diamètre de particule de poudre moyen choisi dans la plage de 1 nm à 50 nm et un pourcentage de l’autre fraction de poudre-matière de remplissage dans le mélange poudre-matière de remplissage est choisi dans la plage de 0,1 % en poids à 50 % en poids. Il s’est avéré qu’en présence de particules de matière de remplissage à l’échelle nanométrique, on peut obtenir un taux de remplissage plus élevé pour une viscosité moindre. Le matériau composite convient en particulier comme masse de scellement (système de résine coulée).
