Abstract
The expanding field of composite materials requires the adoption of inexpensive, readily accessible waste byproducts as reinforcement. The tribological components of modern industrial uses for PMCs are what make them so well-liked. In this study, an epoxy matrix was used. Composites are made by hand lay-up and use fly ash as reinforcement. This research is based on an analysis of the wear behaviour of a fly ash epoxy composite under different conditions, including filler loadings of 4 wt%, 8 wt%, 12 wt%, and 16 wt%, normal loads of 10 N, 15 N, 20 N, and 25 N, sliding velocities of 1.0 m/s, 1.5 m/s, 2.0 m/s, and 2.5 m/s, and sliding distances of 300 m, 600 m, 900 m, and 1200 m. The wear behaviour of a pin-on-disc wear testing machine was investigated using a Taguchi L16 orthogonal array under dry conditions at room temperature. The sliding distance was discovered to have the highest influence on composite wear at 36.0815 %.
