| description.abstract | The interest in natural fiber-reinforced polymer composite materials is rapidly growing both in terms of
their industrial applications and fundamental research. Their availability, renewability, low density, and
price as well as satisfactory mechanical properties make them an attractive ecological alternative to glass,
carbon and man-made fibers used for the manufacturing of composites1. The natural fiber-containing
composites are more environmentally friendly, and are used in many applications such as transportation
(automobiles, railway coaches, aerospace), military applications, building and construction industries
(ceiling paneling, partition boards), packaging, consumer products, etc. Due to the operational
requirement in dusty environments, the erosion characteristic of polymeric composites may be of high
relevance.
To this end the present investigation deals with the property characterization and utilization of abundantly
available and renewable resources of plant fiber such as bamboo. These plant fiber along with industrial
waste (red mud) have been used for synthesizing value added composite materials. Relevant engineering
properties such as physical and mechanical, resistance to erosion wear etc., of the plant fiber reinforced
polymer matrix composites so synthesized were characterized.
A plan of experiments, based on the techniques of Taguchi, was performed to acquire data in controlled
way. An orthogonal array and the analysis of variance were employed to investigate the erosion wear
behavior. The significant control factors and their interactions predominantly influencing the wear rate are
identified. The erosion rates of these composites have been evaluated under different operating
conditions. The morphology of eroded surfaces is examined by using scanning electron microscopy
(SEM) and possible erosion mechanisms are discussed. | en |
