Özet

In this study, effect of recycled zinc powder reinforcement ratios and ball milling time on novolac matrix hybrid composites were investigated. The ball milling time of 2 h showed a positive effect on the hardness of the composites up to 100 HRM. Thermal analysis results showed that the increasing zinc reinforcement ratio was increased thermal stability of the composite powders. The assessment of wear resistance was conducted using a block-on-ring tribometer, and the results demonstrated that the incorporation of zinc particles significantly decreased wear rates. Additionally, 2 h ball milling times showed superior wear resistance. Specimens with 20 wt % Zn reinforcement and subjected to 2 h ball milling time exhibited approximately 93% less wear loss than Zn-free specimens.
