Effect of Heat Treatment on Wear Behavior of Hot Extruded AA7075 - 4%TiC In Situ Metal Matrix Composite

Article Preview

Abstract:

The AA7075-4%TiC metal matrix composite produced through in-situ casting technique was hot extruded and subjected to annealing at 415°C for 150 minutes. Another set of hot extruded AA7075-4%TiC metal matrix composite was heat treated to T6 condition. Dry sliding wear test was conducted with different sliding speeds and loads for both annealed and T6 conditioned composites to compare their wear behaviour. It was observed that irrespective of the heat treatment conditions, the depth of wear, decreases with increasing sliding velocity for all the loads tested and increases with increasing load for all the sliding velocities.
