Abstract

High density polyethylene is widely used in many applications which deal with slurry because of its high erosion resistance characteristics. Slurry erosion is a type of erosive wear which takes place when a stream of liquid hits a solid body and results erosion in this body surface. Slurry erosion is affected by some parameters as material hardness, impact velocity, impact angle, slurry content, ambient temperature, particle hardness, particle size and particle shape. The changing of these parameters individually will result in useful analysis for the changing in slurry erosion rate with respect to the changed parameter. This experimental work aims to investigate the slurry erosion behavior of high density polyethylene under the effect of different impact velocities. A slurry impingement test rig will be used to make the wear test and wear rate of HDPE is investigated as a function of impact velocity and impact angle. Results showed that the maximum wear rate is at the lowest impact angle and maximum impact velocity. Weight loss is the indication of wear rate of the HDPE specimens after experiment and wear rate is defined as weight loss during the test time in [mg/h] unit
