Özet

A significant amount of fish waste is generated every day worldwide and discharged in large quantities in markets, causing environmental and hygiene problems. Therefore, this study aimed to produce environmentally friendly composite materials with improved mechanical and tribological properties in which waste is utilized. For this purpose, this work investigated the production, characterization, mechanical and tribological performance of surface-modified and unmodified waste fish bone (originated from Rainbow trout) powder-reinforced epoxy composites. Interfacial interaction between the waste fish bone powder and epoxy was investigated by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Scanning electron Microscopy (SEM). It was found that the contents of fish bone powder obtained from fish filleting waste affect the mechanical properties and tribological behaviour of epoxy composites. The tensile and flexural strengths of the composites containing fish bone powder improved by 20.6 % and 47.0 %, respectively, compared to the unfilled epoxy as an effect of the thermal treatment. In addition, the coefficient of friction experienced a decrease of 45.8 %, while wear resistance was improved by 34.6 %.
