Wear Behavior of Composites and Nanocomposites: A New Approach
Tribology is a relatively new area and is defined as the science and technology of the interacting surfaces when they are in relative motion with respect to each other. Among various tribological processes wear is an important area of research. It is defi

Wear
The expulsion of material from either of two strong surfaces in relative movement is termed as wear. Wear can also be defined as surface damage, because of material relocation with no net change in weight or volume. It happens as a natural result and for the most part through surface interactions at severities. It is a system response and is not a material property. Interface wear is firmly commanded by working conditions. Wear can be either desirable or undesirable. Desirable instances of wear incorporate machining, polishing, shearing, and writing with a pencil, whereas undesirable cases incorporate all machine applications, for example, gears, bearings, cams, and seals. At times, it is mistakenly expected that high friction wear implies high wear rates, but this is not valid. Interfaces with solid lubricants and polymers generally indicate low friction, however high wear. On the other hand, ceramics show moderate friction with extremely low wear. In some segregated cases, friction and wear might be corresponded. On an overall basis, friction and wear are two distinct system responses [1].

Types of Wear
Wear occurs either by a chemical process or by a mechanical process or by an amalgamation. In most of the applications, it is accelerated by thermal processes. In our day to day applications, wear is classified on the basis of (a) mechanism and

2.2.1
Adhesive Wear
Adhesive wear takes place as a result of micro-junctions produced by welding between two contrasting severities on rubbing surfaces of the counter frames. Load that is applied to the contacting severities is so great that they distort and stick to each other forming micro-joints. Motion of two rubbing counter bodies leads to the generation of rift in between the micro-joints. Welded particle ruptures in the non-deformed regions, thereby leading to transportation of some parts by its counter body. This effect is called as galling or scuffing. At the point when a significant area of the rubbing surfaces adheres, a seizure effect is produced. There are numerous mechanisms that are present for the development of wear particles. Archard’s theory of sliding wear states that shearing of the severity junctions can occur in one of the two bodies depending upon the relative magnitude of interfacial adhesion strength and the shearing strength of surrounding native regions. Fragments of wear occ
