Optimization of tribological behavior of nano clay particle with sisal/jute/glass/epoxy polymer hybrid composites using RSM

The tribological properties are one of the most significant properties in many automobile components such as clutch plate, break shoe, engine liner, piston pin, etc. At present work, attempt on nano clay is loaded with natural fibers (sisal and jute), artificial fiber (E‐glass), and epoxy resin. In this investigation, the specific wear rate and coefficient of friction are analyzed by pin on disc apparatus under dry sliding conditions. The experiment design carried by Box–Behnken design on design of experiment techniques with influence wear parameters, namely, filler content, applied load, sliding distance, and sliding velocity; its responses are analyzed by response surface methodology. The regression mathematical models performed for all the responses, and the most influential factors determined by analysis of variance technique, S/N ratio. The results indicate that the coefficient of friction and specific wear rates are minimized with the addition of filler content to the developed composites and further increasing, the response of composites may be varied.

Influence of Epoxy Resin Treatment on the Mechanical and Tribological Properties of Hemp-Fiber-Reinforced Plant-Derived Polyamide 1010 Biomass Composites

In this study, we investigated the influence of epoxy resin treatment on the mechanical and tribological properties of hemp fiber (HF)-reinforced plant-derived polyamide 1010 (PA1010) biomass composites. HFs were surface-treated using four types of surface treatment methods: (a) alkaline treatment using sodium chlorite (NaClO₂) solution, (b) surface treatment using epoxy resin (EP) solution after NaClO₂ alkaline treatment, (c) surface treatment using an ureidosilane coupling agent after NaClO₂ alkaline treatment (NaClO₂ + A-1160), and (d) surface treatment using epoxy resin solution after the (c) surface treatment (NaClO₂ + A-1160 + EP). The HF/PA1010 biomass composites were extruded using a twin-screw extruder and injection-molded. Their mechanical properties, such as tensile, bending, and dynamic mechanical properties, and tribological properties were evaluated by the ring-on-plate-type sliding wear test. The strength, modulus, specific wear rate, and limiting pv value of HF/PA1010 biomass composites improved with surface treatment using epoxy resin (NaClO₂ + A-1160 + EP). In particular, the bending modulus of NaClO₂ + A-1160 + EP improved by 48% more than that of NaClO₂, and the specific wear rate of NaClO₂ + A-1160 + EP was one-third that of NaClO₂. This may be attributed to the change in the internal microstructure of the composites, such as the interfacial interaction between HF and PA1010 and fiber dispersion. As a result, the mode of friction and wear mechanism of these biomass composites also changed.     

Effects of clay and surface plasma‐treated carbon fiber on wear behavior of thermoplastic POM composites

In engineering applications, experimental data and insight from scientific investigations on wear properties of polyoxymethylene (POM) composites are important for engineers to understand how to design and formulate POM materials with high resistance to wear. In this work, clay and carbon fiber were utilized and incorporated into POM and the mechanical and wear properties, in specific wear rate, were then assessed. The experimental results suggested that the addition of clay increased the tensile modulus and strength. The mechanical and wear properties of POM composites were found to improve with the addition of the carbon fiber. Carbon fiber/clay/POM composite exhibited the lowest specific wear rate and friction coefficient.     

Oligoaniline assisted dispersion of carbon nanotubes in epoxy matrix for achieving the nanocomposites with enhanced mechanical,thermal and tribological properties

A critical challenge for initiating many applications of the carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is their dispersion in organic solvent or in polymer melt. In the present study, we described a novel strategy for fabricating carbon nanotubes (CNTs)-reinforced epoxy nanocomposite by utilizing aniline trimer (AT) as the noncovalent dispersant. Tensile testing showed that the tensile modulus of the CNTs-reinforced epoxy composites was considerably improved by adding a small amount of AT functionalized CNTs. Additionally, the as-prepared CNTs-epoxy nanocomposites exhibited superior tribological properties with much lower frictional coefficients and wear rates compared to those of neat epoxy resin. The well dispersed AT-functionalized CNTs in epoxy matrix played an important role in enhancing the mechanical properties, as well as acting as a solid lubricant for improving the tribological performance of epoxy/CNTs nanocomposite.     

Mechanical properties and frictional resistance of Al composites reinforced with Ti_3C_2T_x MXene

Two-dimensional(2D) Ti_3C_2T_x MXene is an attractive additive not only used in base oil due to its low friction coefficient,but also used in composites due to its high aspect ratio and rich surface functional groups.So far there has been intense research into polymer matrix composites reinforced with Ti_3C_2T_x,Here we report on the use of 2D Ti_3C_2T_x to enhance the mechanical and frictional properties of Al matrix composites.Ti_3C_2T_x/Al composites were designed and prepared by pre s sureless sintering followed by hot extrusion technique.The prepared composites exhibit a homogeneous distribution of Ti_3C_2T_x.The Vickers hardness and the tensile strength continuously increase with increasing Ti_3C_2T_x content.A hardness of 0.52 GPa and a tensile strength of 148 MPa were achieved in the 3 wt% Ti_3C_2T_x/Al composite.The frictional properties of pure Al and the Ti_3C_2T_x/Al composite were comparably studied under dry sliding.A low friction coefficient of 0.2,twice lower than that of pure Al,was achieved in the 3 wt%Ti_3C_2T_x/Al composite.Ti_3C_2T_x acting as a solid lubricant reduces the abrasive wear in the composite,improving the frictional properties of Al matrix composites.     

Sliding Wear Behavior of Nanoclay Filled Polypropylene/Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene/Carbon Short Fiber Nanocomposites

In the present investigation, authors made an attempt to study the sliding wear behavior of polypropylene/ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (PP/UHMWPE, 90/10) blends loaded with 30% carbon short fibers (CSF) as reinforcement and nanoclay as filler material. The nanocomposites have been prepared with varying amounts viz., 0, 1, 2 and 3 wt% of nanoclay. The composites were prepared by melt mixing at 60 rpm extruder speed and compression moulding at 180°C. From all the composites, 6 mm diameter and 25 mm length sliding wear specimens were prepared. Sliding wear loss, specific wear rate and coefficient of friction were investigated by using computerized pin-on–disc machine at normal applied loads of 20, 30 and 40 N; at a sliding velocity of 1.5 m/s and at two abrading distances viz., 200 and 300 m. The wear behavior data reveals that 3 wt% nanoclay filled composite exhibits higher wear resistance and lowest specific wear rate as compared to other nanocomposites. Also morphological study was carried out for wear out surfaces of all the composites using scanning electron microscopy (SEM).     

Friction and wear behavior of PI and PTFE composites for ultrasonic motors

High‐performance polymer‐based frictional materials have become increasingly important to improve the mechanical output properties of ultrasonic motors. This study discussed the friction and wear behavior of 2 dominating frictional materials of polymer composites for ultrasonic motors, polyimide (PI), and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) filled by aramid fibers (AF) and molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂). To explore the wear mechanisms, the tribo‐pair contact stress was theoretically characterized, and the interface temperature rise was numerically predicted. The predictions showed that the flash temperature on asperity tips could reach the glass transition temperature of the polymer materials. The experimental results indicated that the contact stress and sliding speed have a small effect on the friction of the PI composite but influence considerably the friction of the PTFE composite. A higher contact stress brings about a higher specific wear rate, but a higher sliding speed reduces the wear rate. Compared with AF/MoS₂/PTFE, the AF/MoS₂/PI has much better tribological performance under high loads and speeds.     

Tribological properties of epoxy/polyurea composite

The tribological behavior of epoxy/polyurea composite under dry friction was investigated. The worn surface morphologies of epoxy and epoxy/polyurea composite have been analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the functional group of epoxy and epoxy/polyurea composite before and after wear have been analyzed by a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT‐IR). It has been found that epoxy terminal groups, which exist in an epoxy molecule, can react with the end group amine of the polyurea copolymer, generating more H? O bonds, which enhances the deformation capacity. Polyurea particles are dispersed uniformly in epoxy matrix before wear, while plastic deformation and distorted domains occur on the worn surface of epoxy/polyurea composite. This indicates that the wear resistance of epoxy/polyurea composite was greatly improved by the addition of polyurea elastomer, which led to low frictional coefficients and wear mass losses.

Graphene oxide/epoxy composites with enhanced fracture toughness for liquid hydrogen storage

Graphene oxide (GO)/epoxy composites cured by aliphatic dibasic acids have been prepared. The influences of structure of aliphatic dibasic acid and loading of GO on curing process and mechanical properties of epoxy composites were studied. The results show that the reaction activities, gel time of corresponding epoxy-acid system and tensile strength of the formed epoxy resins decrease with the increase of the chain length of aliphatic dibasic acids. Both fracture toughness (>1.96 MPa⋅m^1/2) and elongations at break (>6%) increase with the increase of the chain length of aliphatic dibasic acids. The introduction of GO is helpful to increase the mechanical properties and the gas transmission coefficient of GO/epoxy composites. A maximum of tensile strength and elongations at break were obtained when the loading of GO is 0.6 wt%. The gas transmission coefficient of GO/epoxy composite increases with the increase of GO loading. The excellent mechanical properties and gas leakage resistance coefficient of the formed epoxy composites provides potential application in many fields where conventional brittle epoxy resins are inapplicable.
