Evaluation of the Friction and Wear Properties of PA6 Composites Filled with Nano-SiO₂

Abstract:

PA6 composites filled with nano-SiO₂ were synthesized. The aim of the research article is to study the mechanical and friction and wear behaviour of nano-SiO₂ reinforced PA6 composites. The worn surface of the composite was examined by scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that the addition of nano-SiO₂ can effectively improve the mechancial and tribological properties of the PA6 composites.
