Wear Resistance of Bio-Polymer Composite Base on Cotton Post-Harvest Line Residues

New trend in material engineering are composites with biological-based fillers. On of aim in biological-bases composite is how to use waste from agriculture production i.e. unused secondary products known as residues. The aim of this research is experimental investigation of wear resistance of bio-polymer composite reinforce by cotton post-harvest line residues. These residues come from cotton production as a waste which contain cotton stems and plant roots. Most of these residues are burned as energy source, but residues can find other utilization. Composites based on polymer can solve friction and wear problems in industry for their advantages as self-lubrication, light weight, easy of properties modification, etc. This research is part of wide study dealing with material utilization of post-harvest line residues. Mass loss of wear resistance at composite PCFC 500 with short fibres decrease against the matrix up to 21% on 19.28 mg.
