摘要：
An experimental study to determine the wear behaviour of Agave fibre reinforced epoxy composites (AFEC) has been conducted. Epoxy composites reinforced with Agave fibres of length 3, 5 and 7 mm namely were prepared by hand lay up and open mould technique. Wear behaviour of the composite was responsive to varied load, fibre length and sliding velocity. Observations of this experiment exposed that, AFEC3 has a good degree of wear behaviour when sliding against the stainless steel. The worn surfaces and wreckage were observed under scanning electron microscope. Finally, microscopic observation indicated that the AFEC3 has the ability to have a fairly good bonding with the epoxy matrix.
