“…126,127 As observed by Chin and Yousif, the presence of kenaf fibers in the compound reduces the epoxy coefficient from 0.75 to 0.56. 128 It has been reported that a decline in friction coefficient was attained with the use of coir, betelnut, and palm oil as reinforcement materials by approximately 30%, 46%, and 60%, respectively. This is due to a shift in the counterpart's worn path and composite surfaces, that is, the role of the change in roughness when film transfer is produced in opposite regions.…”

Composite materials have an ever-increasing demand for their application in numerous applications such as aerospace, automobile, petroleum, etc. These materials vary according to their chemical composition, properties, manufacturing techniques, etc. Natural fiber-reinforced composites are the composites where natural fibers such as plant, animal, and mineral fibers are used as reinforcement material. Reinforcement of these fibers yields composite material with extensive properties such as high strength, durability, reliability, etc. These properties lead them to commercial applications in several areas. Therefore, this paper describes various characteristics of the matrix, reinforcement, and resin used for natural fiber composite materials. Also, multiple parameters that affect the growth of these composites are investigated. The tribological behavior of natural fiber composites is focused mainly on friction, wear, and lubrication. Furthermore, the material's mechanical performance and metallurgical behavior are also given significant importance. These materials’ application in various fields is explored separately, and multiple conclusions are drawn.

“…Because of its environmental friendliness impact, natural fibers, fillers and other additives like date palm seed, mango dry leaves orange peel wastes were proposed as tribological performance enhancer as well as improving mechanical behavior of polymer composites [1][2][3][4]. It was concluded that friction coefficient of carbone fiber-reinforced epoxy remarkably decreases by means of using molybdenumdisulfied nano powder [5], nanocarbon [6] as tribological performance modifier filler and to improve wear resistance. Mechanical properties, stiffness and hardness improved in epoxy composites by addition of natural fillers as walnut shell, hazelnut shell, and sunflower husk [7].…”

Natural fiber and fillers in hybrid materials have been attracting extra attention of researchers during recent years for enhancing properties/behavior of polymer composites. Because of their lightweight, high thermal stability and safe environmental impacts sunflower husk and like fillers are proposed to improve the tribological performance of reinforced polymer hybrid composites in several studies by researchers and scientists. In the present work sunflower husk and peanut shell powder are used as natural fillers besides sesame and castor oils to improve the tribological performance of basalt fiber reinforced epoxy composites. Epoxy resin reinforced with 30% vol. basalt chopped fiber has been used for the purpose of enhancing mechanical strength, hardness, and stiffness of composites. Natural fillers and vegetable oils were added in a volumetric ratio up to 20 % interchangeably. Friction coefficient and wear rate of epoxy hybrid -composites were measured under dry sliding condition by means of Block-on-Ring (BOR) tribometer. Hardness was also investigated for the proposed polymer composites. Results show that friction coefficient of basalt reinforced epoxy hybrid -composite remarkably improved with adding of natural fillers as well as vegetable oils. For tribological applications that require low friction coefficient and high wear resistance, like solid lubricants or self-lubricated materials; epoxy hybrid-composites filled with 10 % peanut shell husk fillers as well as 10 % sesame oil have been recommended.
