Abstract EN
Aluminium-graphite composites were synthesized using powder metallurgy route.
Graphite was added as reinforcement in the range of 0, 3, and 6 weight % and composites were prepared by P/M.
Microstructural analysis of the newly synthesized composites was carried out using SEM.
The hardness of the composites was studied using Vickers microhardness tester, by applying a load of 1 kg for 5 sec.
Also the amount of porosity was determined.
Further the wear test was conducted on the sintered specimens using pin-on-disc wear apparatus according to ASTM-G99 standards.
A regression model was developed to predict the wear rate of the specimen.
Then the worn images were studied using SEM based on response surface methodology in order to understand the various wear mechanisms involved.
The study revealed that mild wear, oxidational wear, plowing, cutting, and plastic deformation are the main mechanisms responsible for causing the wear.
