“…Therefore, higher‐the‐better characteristic is chosen for coefficient of friction and lower‐the‐better characteristic is selected for wear rate. The S/N ratio can be calculated from the following equations :

Higher - the - better characteristic : \frac{S}{N} = - 10 \times \log \frac{1}{m} true(\sum \frac{1}{α^{2}} true)

Lower - the - better characteristic : \frac{S}{N} = - 10 \times \log \frac{1}{m} true(\sum β^{2} true)

In this article, nanoclay filled organic-inorganic fiber reinforced brake friction composites are designed, fabricated by compression molding and then investigated their physical, chemical, mechanical, and tribological properties. It is observed that density of the composites increased due to incorporation of inorganic contents (nanoclay/lapinus), which are quite heavier than organic contents (Kevlar/graphite) in the composites. Similarly, as far as mechanical properties are concerned the hardness, tensile strength, and flexural strength of the composites increased with the decrease in the nanoclay/lapinus fiber content but at the same time the organic contents, that is, both Kevlar fiber and graphite content are in the increased order of proportionality. Finally, Taguchi design of experiment technique (L 16 orthogonal array design) is implemented to evaluate the optimal factor settings simultaneously wear loss of the brake friction composites. In this experimental analysis, four input control factors have been taken such as composition, load, Speed, and distance at four levels each to obtain the wear rate and coefficient of friction of the fiber reinforced brake friction composites. The overall mean for the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio of the coefficient of friction and wear rate of the brake friction composites is found to be 29.20 and 96.72 db, respectively. At the end, a confirmation experiment is conducted between the experimental result and predicted theoretical result in order to validate the experimental result. POLYM. COMPOS., 39:1575-1581

“…The slope of each factor shows the influence of response. From the earlier figure, it can be concluded that the filler content level percentage plays the most significant factor than the other independent factors for both response . From S/N ratio Table , the conclusion is made that the combination of independent factors, A 1 B 2 C 4 D 3 and A 1 B 3 C 2 D 4 , produce minimum coefficient of friction and specific wear rate, respectively.…”

The tribological properties are one of the most significant properties in many automobile components such as clutch plate, break shoe, engine liner, piston pin, etc. At present work, attempt on nano clay is loaded with natural fibers (sisal and jute), artificial fiber (E‐glass), and epoxy resin. In this investigation, the specific wear rate and coefficient of friction are analyzed by pin on disc apparatus under dry sliding conditions. The experiment design carried by Box–Behnken design on design of experiment techniques with influence wear parameters, namely, filler content, applied load, sliding distance, and sliding velocity; its responses are analyzed by response surface methodology. The regression mathematical models performed for all the responses, and the most influential factors determined by analysis of variance technique, S/N ratio. The results indicate that the coefficient of friction and specific wear rates are minimized with the addition of filler content to the developed composites and further increasing, the response of composites may be varied.

The objective of present research work is to investigate the surface morphology, physical and mechanical properties of unidirectional S-glass fiber epoxy composites filled with varying amount of ZnO nanofiller content such as 1 wt%, 2 wt%, 3 wt%, 4 wt% and 5 wt% respectively. ZnO nanofiller was modified with matrix in varying amount using mechanical stirrer and followed by ultrasonication process. The laminate composites were fabricated using a compression molding press technique. Further, laminate composites were subjected to individual characterization and testing in an according to American society for testing and materials standards. The crystalline nature of ZnO nanofiller was studied using X-ray diffraction analysis and surface morphology of ZnO nanofiller on the resin surface was examined by using a scanning electron microscope. The experimental test results revealed that addition of nanofiller content by 1 wt%, 2 wt% and 3 wt% resulted in a gradual reduction of a void fraction by 2.760%, 2.510% and 1.641% respectively and thereafter growth in void fraction increased from 2.696% to 2.833% with 4% and 5 wt% of loading. The flexural and impact strength increased to a maximum of 694.2 MPa and 2550.42 J/m with 3 wt% of loading, with further increasing load content of 4 wt% and 5 wt%, both flexural and impact strength were decreased. Whereas, surface microhardness results showed unique behavior in increased order of 21.6 HV, 24.3, 28.5, HV 33.7 HV and 38.4 HV with nanofiller loading of 1 wt% to 5 wt%. Thermo-gravimetric test analysis of composites revealed that there was negligible weight loss (%) in composites at 50 ˚C to 380 ˚C. So, composites were thermally stable up to 380 ˚C. Further heating of composites from 380 ˚C to 900 ˚C, the majority of weight loss (%) incurred in composites which were nearly half of the weight loss (%).
