ABSTRACT
Alumina-filled epoxy resin in which erosion
phenomena occurred is one typical particulate-filled composite and has been used in
applications such as insulation material of the magnetic coil in linear motor car. In this
study, the effect of attack angle, the content and shape of filler on erosion damage were
investigated.
