The study was carried on epoxy composites reinforced with filler materials obtained from recycled zeolites – glass fibers and Al2O3. Composites were prepared by stirring filler materials into epoxy resin and hardener and mixed by hand. 5 series of specimens were obtained with glass fibers, Al2O3 and control specimen being pure epoxy. Filler material analysis was performed with light microscope. Composite physical and thermal properties were studied with universal mechanical testing machine Tinius Olsen and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), density measurements were obtained by weighting hydrostatically. Microscopic analysis did not show any significant size difference in zeolite filler materials compared to traditional ones. Tensile strength showed comparable tensile strength to traditional glass fiber filler, furthermore, DMA revealed increased energy storage modulus, however, density was reduced.
