Description
Summary:This paper presents basic tribological properties of A356/10SiC/1Gr hybrid composites in conditions with lubrication. Hybrid composite specimen is obtained by compocasting procedure. A356 aluminium alloy is used as a base matrix alloy, reinforced with 10wt% of SiC and 1wt% of graphite. Tribological tests are done on advanced and computer supported tribometer with block‐on‐ disc contact pair. By the experimental plan, test is conducted under three different values of sliding speed, three different values of normal load, different sliding distances, and also different lubricants. SEM and EDS are used for wear analysis. The analysis has shown the presence of MML, which means that there was transfer of material from steel disc to composite block.
