“…The similar type of results were also obtained in other investigations i.e. the formation of MML reduces the wear rate [38,42,47,48]. The formation of the oxide layer avoids the metal to metal contact at normal load and normal speed conditions, and hence reduces the coefficient of friction.…”

“…To study the wear behavior of composites at high temperatures, Kumar et al [48] fabricated five composites, namely A, B, C, D and E with different compositions of zircon sand and silicon carbide particles were used as hybrid reinforcements (up to 15 mass%), to obtain required wear properties [49,50]. The microhardness of these composites with different combinations of dual reinforcements has been presented in Table 3.…”

The aluminium matrix composites, particularly with hybrid reinforcements are the advanced materials that have been widely used as a substitute material in the transport sector, to manufacture lighter-weight and higher-performance components. As these components are often subjected to sliding wear under working conditions, therefore several of these applications require enhanced frictional and wear resistance. The purpose of the current review is therefore aimed at highlighting the focus of the current research scenario, in the field of tribological behaviour of aluminium based hybrid composites, to explore the materials for automotive applications. A significant experimental data has been reported in this area, and it has been revealed that the materials possessing high wear resistance are associated with formation of a stable tribolayer on the wear surface and the fine equiaxed wear debris. The operating variables such as applied load, sliding distance and sliding speed, temperature, wearing surface hardness, reinforcement contents and morphology have been found as critical parameters in relation to the wear regime, encountered by the material during operation. An attempt has been made to present and review the various aspects relevant to sliding wear behaviour of aluminium alloys and the hybrid composites, with different combinations of reinforcements. Further, it has been found that the cost and the weight of the aluminium matrix composites can be considerably controlled, by addition of hybrid reinforcements, without compromising the tribological properties.

“…It has been reported in literature [44,45] that the usage of lower ceramic particle size would lead to a better hardness, yield strength, tensile strength, and wear resistance. As an explanation for this, it is noted as that finer particles provide a higher number of barriers per unit volume compared with composites reinforced with a larger particle size at the same weight percentage.…”

“…Recently, the researchers [38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45] have been focused on fabrication of a composite materials, which contain ceramic reinforcement particles with bimodal or trimodal particle size distributions. It has been reported in literature [44,45] that the usage of lower ceramic particle size would lead to a better hardness, yield strength, tensile strength, and wear resistance.…”

Mechanical properties of rolled A356 based composites reinforced by Cu-coated bimodal ceramic particles

ab s t r a c tThree kinds of A356 based composites reinforced with 3 wt.% Al2O3 (average particle size: 170 lm), 3 wt.% SiC (average particle size: 15 lm), and 3 wt.% of mixed Al2O3-SiC powders (a novel composite with equal weights of reinforcement) were fabricated in this study via a two-step approach. This first process step was semi-solid stir casting, which was followed by rolling as the second process step. Electroless deposition of a copper coating onto the reinforcement was used to improve the wettability of the ceramic particles by the molten A356 alloy. From microstructural characterization, it was found that coarse alumina particles were most effective as obstacles for grain growth during solidification. The rolling process broke the otherwise present fine silicon platelets, which were mostly present around the Al2O3 particles. The rolling process was also found to cause fracture of silicon particles, improve the distribution of fine SiC particles, and eliminate porosity remaining after the first casting process step. Examination of the mechanical properties of the obtained composites revealed that samples which contained a bimodal ceramic reinforecment of fine SiC and coarse Al2O3 particles had the highest

“…The usage of AMCs in engineering applications increases day by day. For this reason, in order to increase AMCs' wear resistance, the studies carried out in the composites produced in-situ have been increasing [17][18][19][20][21][22] . In order to improve the tribological properties of aluminum alloys, titanium aluminates are formed within the matrix through the addition of Ti to these alloys.…”
