OPTIMIZATION OF WEAR RESISTANCE AND FRICTION BEHAVIOUR OF RAMIE FIBER-REINFORCED POLYMER NANO-COMPOSITES
This study investigates the tribological performance of epoxy-based hybrid composites reinforced with ramie woven fabric and organically modified montmorillonite (OMMT) nanoclay. The composites were fabricated by incorporating different concentrations of OMMT nanoclay (3, 6, and 9 wt%) into the epoxy matrix containing...
