Abstract

The waste tire rubber particles are as a filler for a laminated polyester composite with glass fiber, resulting in improved mechanical and physical properties. This innovative material has a wide range of uses, including automotive pumpers and the aerospace sector. The influence of drilling factors such as different twist drill sizes and varying feed rates on the delamination factor is studied in this paper. Comparison between different twist drill sizes shows that the minimum size leads to minimum delamination factor, and the lowest feed rate leads to minimum delamination factor by using optimum speed in all cases.
