On Tribological Behavior of Synthetic Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composites Modified With Fillers: A Review
Journal Title: International Journal of Mechanical and Production Engineering Research and Development (IJMPERD ) - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 5
Abstract
Polymer composites reinforced with fibers have been consistently employed in applications involving friction in many industrial components. Though natural fibers possess many advantages, they absorb greater moisture and also their impact properties being quite low, ultimately degrades the mechanical properties. On the other hand, synthetic fibers offer greater specific strength, less density and extraordinary mechanical and tribological properties and hence substituted with many natural fibers. In this point of view, an effort has been made in this article to highlight the tribological behavior of a number of synthetic fiber reinforced polymer matrix composites modified by fillers to satisfy greater strength or modulus requirements.
