By compressing commercially available jute with the polypropylene thermoplastic matrix, composites were produced. Half of the composites were incorporated with maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene, dissolved in toluene solution. The other half was left untreated.Abrasion experiments were carried out using an SUGA abrasion tester.Compared to the treated jute fiber, the untreated jute fiber showed more substantial volume loss.[46]
1. Cold-formed steel, hot rolled
2. Wear-resistant steel with a low carbon content that has been hot rolled
3. Cold-rolled martensitic wear-resistant steel
4. Wear-resistant martensitic steel that has been tempered and quenched
5. Wear-resistant steel, bainitic, hot rolled
Impact/abrasion tester with impeller tumblerThe most weight was lost in hot-rolled cold-formed steel, then by tempered and quenched wear-resistant steel.[47]
1. Commercially pure aluminum
2. Aluminum-magnesium alloys
1. Sliding wear tests
2. Abrasive wear tests
The Mg content in the matrix increased as metal-metal wear resistance and metal-abrasive wear resistance increased.[48]
Grey cast iron plateAbrasion testWear resistance is improved with hard-facing electrodes that contain more chromium and carbon.[49]
WC-Co powders used were as follows:
1. 17 wt.% Co and 83 wt.% WC
2. 15 wt.% Co and 85 wt.% WC
Abrasion testTraditional powder-sprayed coating has a lower wear rate than HVOF-sprayed WC-Co coating.[50]
Composites used were as follows:
1. Carbon/epoxy
2. Glass/epoxy
3. Aramid/epoxy
4. Aramid/polyetheretherketone
5. Carbon/polyetheretherketone
Abrasion testA polyetheretherketone matrix is reinforced by oriented aramid and carbon fibers parallel to the surface.
The composite was stated as a low-wear composite material.

Three plasma-sprayed coatings:
1. Al2O3
2. Al2O3-13% TiO2
3. Cr2O3 (with NiCoCrAlY bond coat)
Two HVOF-sprayed cermet coatings:
1. WC-17% Co
2. WC-10% Co-4% Cr
1. Dry sliding experiments with a ball on a disc
2. Test on a dry sand-steel wheel
Plasma-sprayed ceramics displayed better results than HVOF coatings in dry particle abrasion conditions.
The plasma-sprayed Cr2O3 and HVOF-coated ceramics displayed the best results in the pin-on-disc test.
