This research article presents the fabrication and investigation of physical, thermomechanical, and erosive wear properties of glass fiber-reinforced epoxy composites with and without waste marble dust. The composites were fabricated by vacuum-assisted resin transfer molding (VARTM) technique under controlled operating condition. The filler material (marble dust) was varied in the range of 0-30 wt% in the composite at an interval of 10 wt% to find out the physical (density, void content, hardness and XRD), thermomechanical (storage modulus, loss modulus, damping factor, and thermal conductivity), and erosive wear rate, respectively. This study clearly demonstrated that with the increased filler content, the density, void content, and hardness of the composites were shown promising results along with the crystallinity of the composites. The storage modulus and loss modulus of the unfilled and particulate-filled composites were shown positive effect up to a temperature range of 60 C and then observed decreased trend irrespective of change in filler content with the increased temperature. However, as far as erosion rate was concerned, the particulate-filled composites were shown better wear resistance with the change in impact velocity as well as impingement angle in steady-state operating condition as compared with unfilled composite. At the end, the obtained experimental results were compared with already reported theoretical model in order to validate the results along with the microstructural analysis of composites were also studied to understand the wear mechanism.

“…It is well reported in literature that impingement angle is one of the most important control factors in erosion performance . When the erodent's hit the composite surface at low angles, the force of impact can be divided into two, that is, horizontal and vertical force components . The horizontal force component controls the erodent and vertical force component is responsible for the impact phenomenon.…”

The aim of the research work is to study the physical, mechanical, and erosive wear properties of sugarcane bagasse fiber-reinforced epoxy composites. The physical (density, void content) and the mechanical (hardness, tensile strength, impact energy, flexural strength) properties of the composites were found to increase with the content of bagasse fiber. For erosive wear analysis, the experiments were carried out with the help of erosion test machine. To minimize the erosive wear rate, Taguchi technique is executed to explore the influence of five control factors including fiber content, impact velocity, impingement, stand-off distance, and erodent size at three levels. Using Taguchi (L 27 ) orthogonal array, the optimal combination of control factors, which yielded minimum erosive wear rate, was statistically predicted and experimentally verified. The fiber content and impact velocity were the two most contributing control factors for the minimization of erosive wear rate. The important sequence of the parameters is fiber content > impact velocity > impingement angle > erodent size > stand-off distance. The optimal combination of control factors was obtained at 10 wt% of fiber content, 30 m/s of impact velocity, 30 of impingement angle, 85 mm of stand-off distance, and 250 μm of erodent size. Finally, composites worn surfaces were examined with scanning electron microscope to study the possible erosive wear mechanism. POLYM. COMPOS., 40:3777-3786, 2019.

The behavior of the erosion wear for samples manufactured by hand layup method of epoxy-supported fiberglass, eggshells and calcium carbonate particles were investigated. The test was performed in accordance with the experimental designs Taguchi (L 9) MINITAB (19) to select samples that have the resistance to erosion under the influence of factors. The erosion rate was assessed under the influence of three factors: weight fraction (2% to 8% eggshells and CaCO3 particles), sand size (450, 650, 850 µm) and angles (30º, 60º, 90º) with a fixed face distance of 30 cm, 10 hours and a flow rate of 45 L/min. The results revealed that the rate of erosion is lower for samples consisting of enhanced epoxy resins (eggshell molecules and CaCO3) with chopped fiber glass compared to unfilled samples. Also from these results, it should be noted that the maximum erosion rate was when the weight fraction (2%), the sand size of 850 µm and the angle of 90º, while the minimum rate of erosion was when weight fraction (8%), sand size 650 µm and 30º angle. In this work, the sample of composite materials behaves in a semi- ductile manner.
