Abstract

The present work investigates the influence of reinforcing epoxy by carbon nanotubes and filling by different types of vegetables oils (olive, corn, sunflower, sesame, almond and paraffin oil) on the friction coefficient and wear resistance. Carbon nanotubes of 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1 wt. % content are added to epoxy matrix mixed by 10 wt. % of vegetable oils. Based on the experimental results, it was found that a significant decrease in friction coefficient was observed with increasing the CNT content. Oils can be ranked due to their effect in decreasing µ at 0.6 wt.% CNT content approximately as follows corn , almond , paraffin, sesame , sunflower , and olive oil. The friction reduction ratios were 93, 72, 67, 51, and 42 % respectively. On the other hand, it was noticed that there is significant decrease in wear loss values. Oils can be ranked due to their effect in decreasing wear at 0.6 wt. % CNT content as follows sesame, corn, paraffin, sunflower, almond and olive. The wear reduction ratios were 66, 60, 50, 43, 40 and 33 wt. % respectively. This indicates that sesame oil gives the best wear resistance among the tested vegetable oils.
