Abstract
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.
