Abstract

Nowadays, there is a lot of environmental pollution due to the wastes generated by the industries. In particular, the waste generated by leather industries produces more environmental pollution. Chrome containing leather waste (CCLW) also causes a lot of environmental pollution. In this study, an attempt has been made to use CCLW as reinforcement with aluminium. Collagen powder was extracted from CCLW. Extracted collagen powder was used to develop aluminium based composite after ball-milling with alumina particles. The parameters of the friction stir process (FSP) are optimized by the Box-Behnken Design. The optimum combination of FSP parameters was found to be the number of tool pass of 1, tool rotational speed of 965.20 rpm and transverse speed of 23.69 mm/min. Tensile strength and hardness were found to be 162.89 MPa and 53.24 BHN, respectively at an optimum combination of FSP parameters. Uniform distribution of reinforcement particles has been also observed for the composite developed at an optimum combination of FSP parameters. Results showed that tensile strength and hardness of composite were enhanced by about 20.65 % and 23.81 % respectively with respect to the base material.
