Abstract

In the present study the erosion behavior of basalt fibre reinforced composite was studied. Slurry pot erosion test were conducted on the composite samples with 30%, 40% 50% and 60% reinforcement. Slurry concentration, speed and contact angle were considered as the parameters. The sand particles from the range of 212, 425 and 600µm were suspended in the water. The results revels that the slurry erosion was found to be increased with slurry concentration and the turning speed. The impact angle with 900 has the major influence on the erosion. The highest mass loss due to erosion is found in the sample with 30% reinforcement and the minimal mass loss due to erosion is found in the sample with 60% reinforcement.
