In situ ZA27/TiB2 composites were synthesized successfully by diluting the in situ Al/TiB2 composite, which was used as a master alloy. The microstructure and hardness of the developed in situ composites have been investigated. Results have shown that TiB2 particles distribute uniformly through the matrix and significantly refine the matrix grain. The hardness of the composites was higher than that of the matrix alloy and increased with the increasing TiB2 content. The dry sliding wear behavior under heavy loads and high rotation speed were studied in detail by using a pin-on-disc wear tester at room temperature. The results revealed that the wear resistance of the composites increased monotonically with the increase in the TiB2 content. The composites had a lower coefficient of friction, friction temperature, wear rate, and specific wear rate especially under high loads when compared with the matrix alloy. An increase in the applied load increased the wear severity by changing the wear mechanism from abrasion and oxidation to adhesive wear. The composites possess better adhesive wear resistance properties compared with the matrix, which shows obvious adhesive wear as the load increased to 36 N, while the ZA27/3.0% TiB2 composite did not show adhesive wear until the load increased to 54 N.

Aluminum alloy based metal matrix composites (AMCs) are widely accepted material in the aerospace, automotive, military, and defence applications due to lightweight and high strength. For tribological applications, high-performance wear-resistant materials like AMCs are the candidate materials. In this investigation, AA7075 based composites with different size TiB2 particles were fabricated using in-situ and ultrasound casting techniques (UST). The AMCs were tested using pin-on-disc tribo tester and the effects of different sized TiB2 particles on wear resistance of AA7075/TiB2 composites have been investigated. The wear resistance of AA7075/TiB2 composite fabricated using UST is found to significantly improve when compared to base alloy and also in-situ composite due to refinement in the particle size, reduced the agglomeration, and improved the distribution of TiB2 particles. The test results also revealed the existence of a mixture of mechanically mixed Al–Zn–Fe intermetallic alloy and oxides of these elements.

AbstractThe effect of waste carbonized eggshell and silicon carbide (SiC) wt.% on the dry sliding wear behavior of AA2014 alloy green composites produced by electromagnetic stir casting method was investigated. The percentage of waste carbonized eggshell particles and SiC particles varied from 2.5% to 12.5%. The tribological behavior of AA2014/waste carbonized eggshell/SiC hybrid green metal matrix composites (MMCs) was investigated on a pin-on-disc apparatus. The weight percentages of waste carbonized eggshell and of SiC, normal load, and sliding speed and distance were taken as input process parameters, and wear rate was taken as a response. Response surface methodology was used to plan and analyze the experiment. Minimum wear rate was found to be 8.89×10−5mm3/m with desirability one at optimum parameters of 1.75 m/s (sliding velocity), 6.5 (carbonized eggshell wt.%), 34.24 N (normal load), 1219.63 m (sliding distance), and 11 wt.% (SiC wt.%). In the confirmation experiment, the experimental wear rate of the hybrid green MMC at optimum parameters was found to be 9.5×10−5. Results showed that the experimental wear rate and density of the hybrid green MMC were reduced by about 36.66% and 0.35%, respectively, compared with the matrix.

Cast in-situ Al(Ti)-Al2O3(TiO2) composites, synthesized by dispersing titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles in molten aluminium, which reduces these particles, partially or fully, forming alumina (Al2O3) and releasing titanium to the matrix alloy, may provide materials for lightweight components in automobiles and aircrafts. Wear tests, conducted at different normal loads and at constant sliding velocity of 1.05 m/s using a pin-on-disc wear testing m/c, under dry sliding conditions, indicate that the cumulative volume loss and wear rate of in-situ composites are significantly lower than those observed in either the commercial aluminium or Al-Ti base alloys, under similar load and sliding conditions. At a given particle content, the wear rate increases with increasing porosity content presumably due to its combined effect on real area of contact as well as subsurface cracking. The wear rate of in-situ composites having relatively lower porosity decreases with increasing particle content, but, at relatively higher porosity, decreases a little or remains unchanged with increasing particle content.

Dry sliding wear behavior of the creep-resistant magnesium alloy Mg-10Gd-3Y-0.5Zr and its composites have been investigated in this study. Magnesium matrix composites are prepared by squeezing casting infiltration of Mg alloy into Saffil preforms. Wear tests are conducted using ball-on-flat sliding wear set up under a sliding velocity range of 1-15 cm/s and at an applied load range of 1-8 N for a constant sliding distance of 150 m. According to results, mechanical and wear-resistance properties of magnesium alloy improved by introducing Saffil fibers, and the alumina binder composite has a higher strength and lower wear rate than silica binder composite. The wear rates of the matrix alloy, composites and their counter-face balls increase with increasing applied load. The increment of sliding velocities decreases the wear rate of the matrix alloy under the tested sliding velocities. A critical threshold of sliding velocity for the wear rate of both composites and their counter-faces is about 9 cm/s. Abrasion and plastic deformation are considered to be the dominant mechanism for the matrix alloy in tested conditions, and for both composites under low sliding velocity (<10 cm/s) and at low applied loads (1-5 N). Delamination is the wear mechanism of the silica binder composites at a high applied load (8 N). Adhesion and oxidation are the controlling wear mechanism of matrix alloy and composites under a sliding velocity of 15 cm/s.

The dry sliding wear behavior of the Al-12Si-CuNiMg matrix alloy and its composite reinforced with Al2O3 fibers was investigated using a pin-on-disk wear-testing machine. The volume fraction of Al2O3 fibers in the composite was 17 vol.%. Wear tests are conducted under normal loads of 2.5, 5.0, and 7.5 N, and sliding velocities of 0.25, 0.50, and 1.0 m/s. Furthermore, the worn surfaces of the matrix alloy and the composite were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The results showed that the wear resistance of the composite was inferior to that of the matrix alloy, which could be attributed to the high content of reinforcement and casting porosities in the composite. Worn-surface analysis indicates that the dominant wear mechanisms of both materials were abrasive wear and adhesive wear under the present testing conditions.

In this study, the dry sliding wear behaviors of SiC particle reinforced AZ91D matrix composites fabricated by stirring casting method were systematically investigated. The SiC particles in as-cast composites exhibited typical necklace-type distribution, which caused the weak interface bonding between SiC particles and matrix in particle-segregated zones. During dry sliding at higher applied loads, SiC particles were easy to debond from the matrix, which accelerated the wear rates of the composites. While at the lower load of 10 N, the presence of SiC particles improved the wear resistance. Moreover, the necklace-type distribution became more evident with the decrease of particle sizes and the increase of SiC volume fractions. Larger particles had better interface bonding with the matrix, which could delay the transition of wear mechanism from oxidation to delamination. Therefore, composites reinforced by larger SiC particles exhibited higher wear resistance. Similarly, owing to more weak interfaces in the composites with high content of SiC particles, more severe delamination occurred and the wear resistance of the composites was impaired.

Wear And Friction

Dry sliding wear and friction behavior of cast A356 Al-Si alloy and composite containing 5wt. % ZrO2 particles were studied by means of a pins-on-disk apparatus over loads of 5N, 20N and a sliding speed of 0.628m/s. The experimental results showed that the composites exhibited a higher wear resistance in comparison to that of the unreinforced A356 alloy. The friction coefficient of tested materials increased with increasing applied load from 5 to 20 N. FESEM investigations revealed that the wear mechanism of the A356 matrix alloy changed from sever abrasive, adhesive wear into mild abrasion and adhesive wear with addition of 5wt. % ZrO2 reinforcement particles.

The in situ method of making zinc-aluminum composites wherein TiC has been introduced has been investigated in the present paper for its microstructural, physical, and dry sliding wear behavior and compared with the base alloy. In the present study, ZA-27 alloy reinforced with 5 and 10 vol % TiC was taken into consideration. The results indicate that the wear rate and coefficient of friction of composites were lower than that of base alloy. The material loss in terms of both wear volume loss and wear rate increases with increase in load and sliding distance, respectively, while coefficient of friction follows a reverse trend with increase in load. Better performance was obtained for 5% TiC reinforcement than with 10% probably due to agglomeration of particles resulting in nonuniform dispersion. Worn surfaces were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis.
