This study has been carried out to demonstrate the tribological behavior of natural fiber-based polyester hybrid composite with novel filler materials. The reinforcement fibers considered in this study are Jute and Coir fiber. The filler materials selected in this work are copper slag (final waste from the copper extraction) and Nanoclay (Montmorillonite K10). The percentage of both reinforcement fibers and fillers has been changed, and the analyses have been carried out. Experiments were conducted on the specimen based on Taguchi’s design of experimental technique. L9 Orthogonal array is selected for analysis, and Grey Relational Analysis (G.R.A.) is introduced to determine the better combination of reinforcement and filler to provide better wear resistance and coefficient of friction. Also, a statistical analysis is performed to find the influence of input parameters.
