Abstract

In this research, Micro particles of date palm seed (DPS) and coconut shell powder (CSP) are added to epoxy resin to increase the durability of the material. It is a scientific study with potential practical applications on the material enhancements. With this research, we hope to learn how to improve epoxy's wear resistance by incorporating DPS and CSP microparticles. Future applications of this study may include enhancing wear resistance in biomedical applications and possibly other areas as well. In this study, epoxy composites are fabricated using the mixing method. Particles of DPS and CSP with a particle size of 100 to 130 µm are used to create composites. Five different formulations are available, with filler percentages of 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15 by weight. To get started, five different speeds from 1 to 5 N have been applied to each sample. The least amount of weight reduction occurred in the 12 % sample. The DPS and CSP improved wear resistance after examining all the evaluated samples, leading to better results.
