Overview

Randomized trial evaluates mechanical and wear characteristics of Al/SiC/ZrO2 composites, suggesting their suitability for sustainable applications.

Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the mechanical and wear characteristics of Al/SiC/ZrO2 hybrid composites synthesized via stir-squeeze casting.
  • Synthesis of hybrid composites using stir-squeeze casting method.
  • Microstructural, mechanical, physical, and wear characteristics evaluations conducted.
  • Tribological tests performed to assess coefficient of friction and wear resistance.
  • Density increased from 2.55 to 3.24 g/cm³ with zirconia addition.
  • Microhardness increased from 65.67 HVN to 93.33 HVN as ZrO2 content increased.
  • Tensile strength improved from 85 MPa to 136 MPa and compressive strength from 364 MPa to 448 MPa.
