“…Woven fabric-reinforced composites are gaining popularity because of their balanced properties in the fabric plane as well as their ease of handling during fabrication (Viswanth et al, 1991). Mody et al (1988) have shown that the simultaneous existence of parallel and perpendicular oriented carbon fibers in a woven configuration leads to a synergistic effect on the enhancement of the wear resistance of the composite. In view of the above, this research article, reports a study of three-body abrasive wear performance of particulate-filled glass-vinyl ester (G-V) composites.…”

“…Woven roving is available in a variety of weaves, width, weights and finishes to suit a broad range of applications. 3,4 Composites made with woven glass fibre are finding application in a variety of engineering fields due to their low cost, low weight, high stiffness and corrosion resistance. Fibre-reinforced polymers (FRPs) are utilized to fortify the auxiliary individuals, even after they have been seriously damaged.…”

This work covers the fabrication and investigation of the mechanical behaviour of a glass-fibre-reinforced polymer (GFRP) composite embedded with a stainless-steel wire mesh (SSWM) layer. This work takes the hybridising approach in improving the mechanical properties of GFRP through the incorporation of SSWM into the laminates. The structure of the composite is such that the SSWM was placed in the top, middle and bottom of the GFRP. The laminates are fabricated using the hand-layup method with a 40 % weight fractions of epoxy resin, 50 % weight fractions of woven glass fibre and the remainder being SSWM. The mechanical characteristics of the composites are obtained using tensile, flexural, inter delamination and drop weight impact tests. In addition to that, a morphological investigation is made utilizing a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The test outcome demonstrates that the introduction of SSWM leads to far better mechanical properties than GFRP and SSWM in the middle layer has a superior strength compared to other laminates. Keywords: glass fibre reinforced polymer, stainless-steel wire mesh, mechanical tests, ultimate strength, SEM Delo obravnava izdelavo in preiskavo mehanskih lastnosti polimera, oja~anega s steklenimi vlakni (angl. GFRP) v katerem je vgrajena ploskovna`i~na mre`a iz nerjavnega jekla (angl. SSWM). To delo predstavlja hibridiziran pribli`ek za izbolj{anje mehanskih lastnosti GFRP z vgraditvijo SSWM v laminate. Kompozit je sestavljen tako, da je bila SSWM name{~ena zgoraj, v sredini in spodaj. Laminati so izdelani z ro~nim polaganjem 40 masnimi % epoksi smole, 50 masnimi % tkanine iz steklenih vlaken, ostalo pa je SSWM. Mehanske lastnosti kompozitov so dolo~ene z nateznim in z upogibnim preizkusom, z razslojevanjem in z udarno`ilavostjo. Dodatno k temu je izvedena tudi morfolo{ka preiskava s pomo~jo vrsti~nega elektronskega mikroskopa (SEM). Rezultati preizkusov ka`ejo, da vstavitev SSWM bolj izbolj{a mehanske lastnosti kot GFRP, SSWM v sredini pa izbolj{a trdnost v primerjavi z ostalimi laminati. Klju~ne besede: steklena vlakna, jeklo oja~ano s polimeri, ploskovna`i~na mre`a iz nerjavnega jekla, mehanski preizkusi, natezna trdnost, SEM

“…Many investigations have shown that the incorporation of fiber reinforcement improved the wear resistance and reduced the coefficient of friction [10]. Mody et al [11] in their investigation showed the simultaneous existence of parallel and perpendicular oriented carbon fibers in a woven configuration leads to a synergic effect on the enhancement of the wear resistance of composite. Carbon fiber is graphitized carbon with the hexagonal planes of its crystals aligned perpendicular to the fiber axis.…”

The three-body abrasive wear behaviour of carbon fabric reinforced epoxy (C-E) composites has been evaluated by the addition of graphite (G) particles as a secondary reinforcement. Three-body abrasive wear test were conducted using dry sand rubber wheel abrasion tester as per ASTM G-65 with three process parameters load, abrading distance and filler content. To assess the abrasive wear behaviour of particulate filled C-E composites satisfying multiple performance measure, grey-based Taguchi approach has been adopted. The experiments were designed according to Taguchi's orthogonal array (L 27 ). The grey relational analysis was applied to convert a multi response process optimization to a single response. Using analysis of variance, significant contributions of process parameters have been determined. The results indicate that the addition of graphite particles into C-E composite increased the wear resistance considerably. It was observed that highest wear resistance of C-E composite was achieved with incorporation of 10 wt% of graphite filler. Results indicate that the filler content and grit size of abrasive paper were found to be the most significant factor which has influence on the abrasive wear of C-E composite. The worn surface features were examined through scanning electron microscope to probe the wear mechanism.
