“…To cope with some limitations of polymers like low stiffness and decreased strength, ceramic fillers are employed to improve their mechanical, tribological, thermal, physical and electrical characteristics [19][20][21]. Fillers infused in polymeric composites, not only minimize the cost of composite material but also execute the high performance demands and improve the quality of polymeric composite [22,23].…”

“…In the past decade, scientists have shown great interest in organic-inorganic composites since their application has dramatically improved material properties [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. A composite material can provide superior and unique mechanical and physical properties because it combines the most desirable properties of its constituents while suppressing their least desirable properties.…”

Highlights• Relation between the filler volume fraction/particle size & mechanical properties;• Relation between wear resistance and mechanical properties and the contact media;• Wear performance comparison of micro and nanofiller in: sliding and abrasive media. AbstractThe addition of ceramic reinforced material, SiC particles, to resin matrices, results in the improvement of the overall performance of the composite, allowing the application of these materials as tribomaterials in industries such as: automotive, aeronautical and medical. Particle-reinforced polymeric composites are widely used as biomaterials, for example as dental filler materials and bone cements.These reinforced composites have improved mechanical and tribological performance and have higher values of elastic modulus and hardness, and also reduce the shrinkage during the polymerization compared with resin matrices. However, the effect of the filler level in mechanical and tribological behaviour is not quite understood.The aim of this work is to determine the influence of the particle volume fraction and particle size in the wear loss of the composites and their antagonists. Reciprocating wear tests were conducted using a glass sphere against resin polyester silica reinforced composite in a controlled medium, with an abrasive slurry or distilled water. For 6 μ m average particle dimension, seven particles contents were studied ranging from 0 % to 46 % of filler volume fraction (FVF). Afterwards, filler volume fractions of 10 % and 30 % were selected; and, for these percentages, 7 and 4 average particle dimensions were tested and were evaluated regarding their wear behaviour, respectively. The reinforcement particle dimensions used ranged from 0.1 μ m to 22 μ m with the 10 % filler fraction, and for 30 % of filler content the range extended from 3 μ m to 22 μ m. The results allow us to conclude that in an abrasive slurry medium the composite abrasion resistance decreases with the increase of the particle volume fraction, in spite of the accompanying rise in hardness and elastic modulus. With constant FVF, and abrasive slurry, the composite wear resistance increases with increasing average particle dimension. In a distilled water medium and with several FVF values, the minimum wear was registered for a median particle content of 24 %. In this medium and with constant FVF the highest wear resistance occurred for average reinforcement particles of 6 μ m. The removal mechanisms involved in the wear process are discussed, taking into account the systematic SEM observations to evaluate the we...

“…It was observed that the larger the amount of glass fibre, the greater the matrix phase volume expelled during the manufacturing process. Silica particles within laminated composites have a positive effect when the amount of matrix phase is maintained in the system [18]. As shown in Figure 4, tensile strength values are reduced when the amount of glass fibre layers is increased.…”

Studies of composite materials in recent years have focused on the use of natural fibres as an alternative to synthetic fibres. The attractive mechanical properties, sustainability, low cost and low weight are potential factors that have leveraged research in this area, due to the variety of applications in the engineering sector. A full factorial design (2¹6¹) was performed to identify the effect of silica inclusions and the stacking sequence of glass fibres and short sisal fibres. The response-variables, such as apparent density, tensile and flexural strength and modulus of elasticity, were assessed in this work. In general, the incorporation of silica particles improved the performance of composites containing larger amounts of sisal fibres. Hybrid composites with higher number of glass fibre layers achieved higher values of tensile and flexural strength (348 MPa and 663.28 MPa) and tensile and flexural modulus (22 GPa and 2.50GPa) and higher apparent density value (2.02 g/cm³).
