5. Tribology of Polymer Composite with Low Load Application for Automotive Industries
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : In recent times, there has been an increased interest in replacing conventional metals and synthetic fiber composites in various automobile parts with natural fiber polymer composites. These natural fiber composites offer benefits over conventional materials in terms of reduction in weight, lower cost, comparable high specific properties such as specific stiffness and strength, low abrasion property, and availability of these materials.
