Evaluation of Wearing Properties of Polyamide 66 Containing Glass Wool

Article Preview

Abstract:

Glass wool is discontinuous glass fiber with the average diameters of 3-4 μm produced by means of centrifugal process, and mainly applied to heat and acoustic insulation. But, there are few reports on glass wool applied to reinforcement of plastic materials in which chopped strand made by chopping continuous glass fiber is used primarily. In this study, the polyamide 66-based composite material samples containing glass wool were prepared and its wear property as a mechanical property was evaluated. It was found that the composite has an advantage on the wear property compared with a conventional glass fiber reinforced plastic, and the result suggests that glass wool has a possibility as a reinforcement material applied to plastic parts required wear resistance.
