A review on tribo-mechanical properties of micro- and nanoparticulate-filled nylon composites

Abstract Nylon composites are of evolving interest due to their good strength, toughness, and low coefficient friction. Various fillers like micro- nanoparticulates metals metal compounds were used enhance the mechanical tribological properties nylons for many years by researchers. In this paper, an overall understanding composites, filler materials, especially particulate application areas polymer wear polymers, effect various on tribo-mechanical have been discussed. The detailed review is limited nanoparticulate influence nylon matrices.
