Solid particle erosion of polymer matrix composites filled with naturally available and environment pollutant fillers have not been studied to the same level as for metals or ceramics and is focus of the present study. In this article, review of the research associated with the erosion response of polymer composites is presented. Particulate polymer composites are employed extensively owing to their enhanced specific properties and tribological response. Particulate filler particles such as environmental pollutants and naturally available ones need to be effectively incorporated in utilitarian applications so as to reduce land fill burden issues and other specific problems. Nevertheless, adequate data is not available in review articles on the erosion of fillers that are environment pollutants and thereby an ample amount of research can be carried out in this regard. Erosion behavior of polymer composites in particular has gained a lot of attention among researches in the recent decade. Viability of incorporating various fillers in polymer matrix for erosion resistive applications needs to be assessed so that the potential of these composites can be well understood. Therefore in this study, erosion response of polymer composites reinforced with fillers is reviewed with a focus on input parameters (impact velocity, impingement angle and erodent properties) and material properties (density).

In recent decade, polymer matrix composites were extensively used in various engineering applications owing to their advanced properties over conventional materials and enhanced performance. This motivated the researchers to generate an extensive study and research work on polymer composites. In recent studies, the erosion properties of the polymer composite attract increasing attention among researchers. The potential enhancement in the erosion resistance property of filled composites tempted the researchers to find the feasibility of using various filler materials in polymer matrix for specific erosion resistance applications. However, only limited numbers of literature are available concerning the tribological performance of the filled composite. Hence in this study, an objective was set to review the various literature that explain the erosion characteristics of filled composites.

The main concept behind this work is to further enhance the attractive properties of aluminum by fabricating Al - WC composites and evaluating them in terms of their solid particle erosion response. Aluminum Matrix Composites (AMCs) were produced by the addition of submicron sized WC particles (up to 2.5vol %) into a melt of Al1050. Casting was assisted by the use of K2TiF6 as a wetting agent and mechanical stirring in order to minimize particle clustering. Extensive presence of in-situ intermetallic phases (Al4W, Al5W, Al12W, Al3(Ti,W), Al3Ti) was observed in the cast products. Particle distribution was reasonably uniform comprising both clusters and isolated particles. Solid particle erosion experiments were carried out for impact angles of 30°, 60° and 90°, using angular Al2O3 particles as the eroding medium and under 5 bar spraying pressure. The erosion rate was calculated by measuring the mass loss and the eroded surfaces were examined with SEM-EDX. Increased erosion resistance was observed for low particle additions (≤ 1.0 vol%WC). Finally, a possible erosion mechanism was proposed based on the material’s microstructural and morphological characteristics.

Polymer matrix composites have generated a great deal of attention in recent decades in various fields due to numerous advantages polymer offer. The advancement of technology has led to stringent requirements in shielding materials as more and more electronic devices are known to cause electromagnetic interference (EMI) in other devices. The drive to fabricate alternative materials is generated by the shortcomings of the existing metallic panels. While polymers are more economical, easy to fabricate, and corrosion resistant, they are known to be inherent electrical insulators. Since high electrical conductivity is a sought after property of EMI shielding materials, polymers with fillers to increase their electrical conductivity are commonly investigated for EMI shielding. Recently, composites with nanofillers also have attracted attention due to the superior properties they provide compared to their micro counterparts. In this review polymer composites with various types of fillers have been analysed to assess the EMI shielding properties generated by each. Apart from the properties, the manufacturing processes and morphological properties of composites have been analysed in this review to find the best polymer matrix composites for EMI shielding.
