Abstract
In the last two decades, composites that are biodegradable and environmentally friendly are becoming more popular. In this paper, Biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) biocomposites reinforced with waste silk fiber were fabricated using the hot molding technique. PLA bio-composites containing silk fibers had better wear properties, according to the findings. For superior properties, the fiber content of 30% by weight is ideal. A silk-based biodegradable composite with enhanced mechanical and wear properties can be designed due to this research. Taguchi’s L25 orthogonal array was used to study sliding speed (S), wear load (L), fiber loading (F), and abrasive distance (D). The ANOVA results found that the abrading distance was the most significant parameter, with load, sliding velocity, and fiber loading in order of importance.
