In this study, adhesive wear of woven E-Glass fabric reinforced composites filled with aramid, B4C and mica particles at 0.5% wt. and 1.5% wt. ratios were carried out under dry sliding conditions. The effects of filler type, applied loads (5, 10 and 15 N) and sliding distances (250, 500 and 750 m) on the tribological behavior of the composites were investigated on the pin-on-disc device. As a result of the studies, it was determined that the friction coefficient in aramid reinforced composites was lower than the other reinforced composites. In wear volume due to wear, it was observed that the aramid wear volume was less. In addition, Wear volume increased with increasing load for all particle reinforcements. But, the highest wear volume occurred in the neat wear sample at 15 N load conditions. For the wear rate and wear volume, the fillers have shown improvement up to 1.5% wt. in the composite. 1.5% wt. aramid-filled glass fiber woven composites showed the lowest wear rate: 2.82 × 10−4 mm3/N-m (at 15 N normal load). In addition, in the scanning electron microscope images taken, it was observed that there were breaks in the size of 15.07 µm in the epoxy and 61.11 µm in the fibers. The use of aramid with particle reinforcement rather than fiber is important for wear. In addition, the lowest wear volume was 65% more resistant at 1.5% wt aramid reinforcement and at 15 N load compared to the unreinforced composite in the abrasion tests. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
