Purpose The emergence of COVID-19 pandemic in the late 2019 was accompanied by
various consequences that included almost the entire life aspects worldwide. To cope with …

The brittleness of floor materials made of epoxy resins limits their applications. To decrease
that effect, recycled rubber particles and paraffin oil are proposed to blend epoxy. The role of …

The present work investigates the possibility to introduce new self-lubricating polymeric
materials for dry sliding bearing applications. The proposed polymeric composites are …

It is essential to reduce the brittleness that limits the applications of floor materials made of
epoxy resins. In the present work, recycled rubber particles and paraffin oil are filling epoxy …

This work aims to study the mechanical and tribological properties of different epoxy
composites are performed. The epoxy matrix was adopted in this work as a base material …

The purpose of the current work is to show the effect of multi-walled carbon nanotubes
(MWCNTs) of 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5 wt.% contents reinforcing polymethyl methacrylate …

The relatively low static friction coefficient displayed by sliding of soles on floor tiles is
considered as the major reason in walking accidents indoors. The present work studies the …

The present work investigates the possibility of reinforcing epoxy by natural fibers such as
wood, rice straw and palm fibers to be used as floor material. The abrasion resistance of the …

This article discusses the influence of filling epoxy by chopped carbon fiber and various
kinds of oil (olive, corn, sunflower, glycerin and paraffin) on the friction and wear. Different …

The aim of this work is to improve the tribological properties of epoxy composite as water
pipeline internal coating material, against water jet erosion wear analysis and investigating …
