Influence of rotational speed and reinforcements on wear and mechanical properties of aluminum hybrid composites via friction stir processing

Aluminium matrix hybrid composites: a review of reinforcement philosophies; mechanical, corrosion and tribological characteristics

“…1. Similar report has been made by the authors on hybrid AMCs containing SiC and Al 2 O 3 [33] . The hardness and wear resistance of the hybrid composites were superior to that of the matrix material.…”

Synthesis and characterization of titanium carbide particulate reinforced AA6082 aluminium alloy composites via friction stir processing

“…Few studies on the production and characterization of AMCs using FSP were reported in the literature recently [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23]. Kurt et al [14] has produced AA1050/SiC AMC using FSP and have reported that increasing tool rotational speed and traverse speed caused a more uniform distribution of SiC particles.…”

“…Moghaddas and Bozorg [21] prepared AA5754/Si 3 N 4 AMC using FSP and estimated the effect of temperature during processing on the grain size of the composite. Devaraju et al [22] developed AA6061/SiC and AA6061/graphite AMCs using FSP and optimized the process parameters using Taguchi method to enhance the wear behaviour of the composite. Liu et al [23] fabricated AA1016/MWCNT AMCs using FSP and examined the microstructure and mechanical properties of the composite.…”

Aluminium Based Metal Matrix Composites: A Review of Reinforcement; Mechanical, Wear Properties

“…As mentioned earlier, corrosion performance of these AMCs are also not consistent judging from reports published in the past. Deravaju et al [1] studied the influence of SiC/Gr and SiC/Al2O3 on the wear properties of friction stir processed Al 6061-T6 hybrid composites. The authors reported uniform distribution of the reinforcing materials in the nugget zone of the hybrid.…”
