dc.description.abstractThe composite material is made of different materials. It retains the advantages of the original material and reflects combined characteristics of all the constituents. Polymer matrix composites are popular in the recent industrial applications. Friction and wear governs the tribological aspects of polymer composites. This paper revel the experimental study of friction and wears behavior of epoxy composites filled with bronze and graphite fillers as per ASTM standards. Three compositions were studied and it was found that composition ‘A’ has lowest coefficient of friction (0.281) whereas composition ‘C’ has highest coefficient of friction (0.325). The composition ‘A’ has lowest wear rate of 0.5 μm/s and composition ‘C’ showed highest wear rate of 3.25 μm/s. Use of graphite and bronze along with epoxy exhibited formation of lubricating layer and enhanced friction and wear behavior of the composites. © 2021
