Journal ArticleDOI
A novel organoclay reinforced UHMWPE nanocomposite coating for tribological applications
TL;DR: In this paper, a polymer based nanocomposite coatings were developed by reinforcing ultra-high molecular polyethylene (UHMWPE) with different loadings of C15A nanoclay to improve the tribological performance of the polymer coating.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tribological behaviour of alumina-based nanocomposites reinforced with uncoated and Ni-coated cubic boron nitride
Muhammad Umar Azam,Bilal Anjum Ahmed,Abbas Saeed Hakeem,Hafiz Muzammil Irshad,Tahar Laoui,Tahar Laoui,Muhammad Ali Ehsan,Faheemuddin Patel,Fazal Ahmad Khalid +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of spark plasma sintered (SPS) nano-alumina (∼150nm)-based composites reinforced with 10, 20 and 30% uncoated and nickel-coated cubic boron nitride (cBN) particles was evaluated using a ball-on-disc configuration against three different counterface materials (WC, Si3N4 and Al2O3) under dry sliding conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
UHMWPE hybrid nanocomposite coating reinforced with nanoclay and carbon nanotubes for tribological applications under water with/without abrasives
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of a novel ultra-high molecular polyethylene (UHMWPE) based hybrid nanocomposite coating under aqueous environment is evaluated by using ball-on-disk configuration and scratch testing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimization of SiC Concentration and Process Parameters for a Wear-Resistant UHMWPE Nancocomposite
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of process parameters such as applied pressure and time of holding on the tribological properties of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) nanocomposite reinforced with different loadings of silicon carbide (SiC) nanoparticles was evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
