Outline of Final Research Achievements

In the present study, the thermoplastic resin composites were newly developed using a RB ceramics particle, which is made from rice bran, as a friction and wear reducer. According to the friction tests under a wide range of conditions, the RB ceramics can contribute to higher wear resistance and lower aggression to the mating material at low sliding velocity and high load, compared with the other fillers. The particle filled composite was expected to use as tribomaterials under high-load conditions.
