Abstract

Materials used to make the various parts should be able to withstand the wear and tear for longer product life. Polymers are preferred to use for some of the applications because of its lesser weight and its thermophysical and Mechanical properties. The present work is to investigate the abrasive rate of reinforced nano silica composite which is extracted from sugar cane bagas by pin on disc testing. The factors influences the abrasive rate of the composites are predicted by multilinear regression analysis. The impact of each parameter of reinforcement, input load and sliding speed on abrasive behavior is identified by analysis of variance.It is identified that in the dry sliding, wear of the epoxy silica composite is inversely proportional to thickness and constituents of reinforcement. The weight bearing strength of the exopy has been improved with the addition of nano silica. Micro-structural study is done by SEM to investigate the wear behaviour of epoxy nano silica composite with Non-lubricant sliding circumstances.
