Tribological characteristics (Wear and Friction) have been studied for (PMMA) polymer, reinforced by nano [TiO2 - ZnO] with volume fractions (0, 2, 3, 4 and 5) vol. %. Ultrasonic dispersion technique was used to prepare the nanocomposites specimens followed by cold – casting technique using flash Teflon molds according to standard conditions. [Pin-on-disc] technique is used to measure wear rate and coefficient of friction. Tribological results show that the values are decreased progressively by succession of load increasing as well as volume fractions of fillers. Scanning electron microscopy technique were employed to aid interpretation results of sliding wear and distribution nanoparticles in base – matrix.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
