Effects of Sliding Speed on Dry Sliding Wear Properties of Al2O3-SiO2(sf)/AZ91D Composites
Magnesium alloy matrix composites (MMCs) with volumetric fraction of 15%
20%
25% and 30% were prepared with the preform made of crystallized aluminum silicate short fibers as reinforcement and aluminum phosphate as binder by squeezing casting at high temperature. Dry sliding wear properties of the composites were tested by using MM200 wear tester (block-on-ring configuration) against a hardened alloy steel counterface with hardness of 53HRC under loads of 10
20
30
40 and 50N and sliding velocities of 0.47 and 0.92 m/s
and wear morphology of the specimens was observed by SEM (scanning electron microscope). The results reveal that effects of sliding speed on wear rate of the composites are higher and more complex than on those of the AZ91D matrix alloy
which is closely related to not only volumetric fraction in the composites but also applied loads.
