In this work, a multi-response optimization technique has been used to optimize the process parameters considered while conducting wear tests of fabricated particle-reinforced epoxy composites. The paper signifies effect CaSiO3 and WS2 particles reinforced composite’s performance at different filler wt.% (2 1, 2.5, 4, 5.5 7 WS2), load (30-70 N), sliding distance (400-2000 m) that are friction tests. Experiments were conducted on pin-on-disc configuration using an L25 OA through Taguchi's design experiment for constant time 15 min. results showed inclusion improved material's resistance. optimal combination was obtained with Taguchi-GRA followed by determining most influencing factor ANOVA tool. tool calculates percentage contribution parameters. behaviour optimized achieve lowest coefficient specific rate. At 2000 m min testing duration, yields best result is content 2 wt. % WS2, along 70 N. reveal 50.87% significant parameter (15.63%) (13.55%). A confirmation test carried out control validate experimental results. Additionally, SEM analyse worn surfaces images adhesive abrasive mechanism prevalent in observed material.
