“…Reinforcement arrests the dislocation movement when the load is applied, resulting in growth in hardness. This result is in agreement with work done by Atuanya [28] and Hassan [29]. Further, when the weight percentage of marble dust increases at its maximum, there is a possibility of agglomeration of marble dust particle which reduces the interfacial bonding between reinforcement and matrix material that generate a decrease of hardness value for the composites.…”

Composite materials are unique because reveal great physical, mechanical and thermal properties. However, there is yet huge potential to enhance their features by adding specific reinforcement in the matrix in order to reach the requirements of a particular application. This paper presents detailed research on the impact of marble dust reinforcement to mechanical and tribological features of copper based metal alloy (C93200 series) composites dedicated for bearing applications. The novel composites made with marble dust reinforcement (1.5 to 6.0 wt%) were manufactured using the liquid metal stir casting technique. A micro-hardness tester and universal testing machine (Instron-5967) were used to obtain the mechanical properties. While, the POD tribometer was engaged to detect the wear features by simulating various operating conditions by setting the temperature constant (35°C). The Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was used to investigate the wear mechanisms produced at the hard contact between the composites with different marble content against an EN-31 hardened steel disc. The data gathered in this research proves an improvement in the mechanical properties, especially for a higher reinforcement ratio of novel composite, in respect to the matrix alloy. Furthermore, the novel marble dust reinforced composites reveal much better wear resistance in respect to un-reinforced composite that make it suitable for bearing application.

“…JFPEC and JFPECC exhibited absorbance peaks at 1,257 cm −1 , corresponding to the C‐O stretching vibration of the acetyl group in lignin and hemicelluloses . The (jute fiber)/PE composite had a peak at 1,101 cm −1 due to C‐O deformation of esters, and the strong absorption peaks at 1,026 to 1,028 cm −1 are attributed to the C‐O and O‐H stretching vibration of JFPECC, which belongs to polysaccharides in cellulose . However, JFPESC exhibited Si‐O‐Si stretching vibration as confirmed by the peak at 1,095 cm −1 in Fig.…”

In this study, (jute fiber)/polyethylene biocomposites were prepared by using a hot press machine. Jute fiber was investigated as a reinforcing filler material for producing structural composites with better environmental performance. The effects of clay and silica addition on the physical, mechanical, and thermal properties of (jute fiber)-reinforced polyethylene biocomposites with different fiber loadings (5, 10, 15, and 20 wt%) were investigated. The biocomposites were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The composite surface area and pore volume were determined by using the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller equation. The mechanical properties were investigated by using a Universal Testing Machine. Because of Si-O-Si stretching vibration, the O-H group from 3,200 to 3,400 cm 21 disappeared. The scanning electron microscopy results proved that a significant difference among the composites was present due to the interfacial bonding between the fiber and the matrix. J.

“…Study was carried out by C.U. Atuanya et al [33] Prepared AlSi10Mg composites reinforced with rice husk ash of different particle sizes like 50 -75, 75 -100 and 100 -150 μm by 3%, 6%, 9%, and 12% by weight through the liquid metallurgy method studied by S. D. Saravanan [36] The results revealed that composite reinforced with coarse rice husk particles shows better wear resistance compared to fine particles. The wear rate of composite decreased with increase in the weight percentage of rice husk.…”

In the present day availability of agricultural waste products is very huge quantity. Most of the industries prefer Metal matrix composite (MMC) due to their density, high strength to weight ratio, hardness, corrosion resistance, fatigue and creep resistance. Hence they are widely used in structural applications along with aerospace and automobile industry, marine, sports, electronic and automation industries. In the present paper a study is focused on the mechanical, tribological and corrosion behavior of the metal matrix composite using different agro waste ash which is easily available. Agro waste ash like Rice Husk, groundnut shell, bamboo leaf, coconut shell can be used as reinforcement and applicable for various applications like automotive, structural components. From this current study, it's clearly identified that addition of agro waste ash as reinforcement with Aluminium improves the properties of metal matrix composite. Aluminium metal with such reinforcement materials has shown a high specific strength, yield strength and ultimate tensile strength, also it will increase hardness, satisfactory levels of corrosion resistance.
