Study on Mechanical and Tribological Properties of Glass Fiber Reinforcedepoxy Composites with Sic & Flyash as Fillers

Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 7

Abstract

Glass fiber reinforced polymer composites are one of the most widely used composite materials due to its light weight and high impact resistance used for aerospace, marine and other industrial applications. Glass fiber used in industrial applications to make polymer matrix composite is having chemical inertness in nature. In this work, a method is proposed to add fly ash and Silicon carbide (Sic) content to polymer matrix for enhancing the overall strength and improve tribological properties of the composite. In this method polymer matrix composites are fabricated by using hand lay-up technique in different weight percentages of fly ash and Sic (5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%).The mechanical properties such as tensile, compression, impact and hardness properties are studied as per ASTM standards. Experimental investigation on Tribological properties of Flyash and silicon carbide reinforced Glass fiber epoxy composites with different weight (0%,5%,10%) percentages using pin-on-disc machine and analysis of tribological characterstics in ANOVA are done in this work.
