The Oil Lubricated Sliding Wear Behavior of In Situ TiB₂ Partical-Reinforced Al-10Sn Matrix Composites

Abstract:

Al-10Sn matrix composites reinforced by TiB2 particles were fabricated by Mixed Salt Reaction in situ synthesis process. The oil lubricated sliding wear tests of composites and matrix alloy were conducted on a small thrust ring versus disc wear testing machine at room temperature under different applied loads and the wear surfaces were observed using SEM. The results indicate that the coefficient of friction, friction temperature, and wear weight loss increase with the increase of applied loads, but compared with matrix alloy, the composites exhibit better anti-friction property and higher wear resistance. The analysis of wear surface suggests that light ploughing is predominant for composites and matrix alloy at low loads, and ploughing is still predominant for composites at high loads, but adhesion and delamination are predominant for matrix alloy at high loads
