Abstract Industrial tasar silk waste (TSW)/jute fiber has been utilized as reinforcement in the epoxy to develop hybrid composite for physio-mechanical properties and sliding wear characterization. The percentage of TSW loading in the composite was varied from 4 to 14 wt % and the jute fiber was kept constant for all the composition. Compression moulding technique was used for the fabrication of hybrid composite at a pressure of 2MPa to minimize the void formation. Results show that the addition of TSW in the jute/epoxy composite enhances the mechanical strength and reduces the specific wear rate. Surface morphology confirms the mechanism of fiber abrasion and adhesion and the formation of wear debris in the composite. Lastly, multi-criteria decision analysis carried out, and the ranking has done accordingly. The result obtained from the TOPSIS suggested that 12 wt % of TSW in the composite gives the optimized mechanical strength among all the samples.

塔萨蚕丝废料/黄麻纤维杂化复合材料的物理力学表征

摘要 工业 tasar 丝绸废料 (TSW)/黄麻纤维已被用作环氧树脂中的增强材料，以开发具有物理机械性能和滑动磨损特性的混合复合材料。复合材料中 TSW 负载的百分比从 4 到 14 重量％不等，并且黄麻纤维对于所有组合物保持恒定。压缩成型技术用于在 2MPa 的压力下制造混合复合材料，以最大限度地减少空隙的形成。结果表明，在黄麻/环氧树脂复合材料中添加 TSW 可提高机械强度并降低比磨损率。表面形态证实了纤维磨损和粘附的机制以及复合材料中磨屑的形成。最后，进行了多标准决策分析，并进行了相应的排名。
