Investigation of Wear Behavior of Aluminum Matrix Composite Reinforced by Al2O3 and Produced by Hot Pressing Process
Journal Title: Gazi Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Dergisi Part C: Tasarım ve Teknoloji - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
In this study, Al powder produced by gas atomization technique has 72.06 μm average particle size and 99 % purity was mixed with as a reinforcement Al2O3 has 99.52% purity and 45 submicron particle size in a high energy ball mill for two hours. In order to obtain disk samples with 30 mm diameter and 6 mm thick mixed powders, after the characterization of particle size and morphology, were compacted in a single action press. Compaction process were carried out from mixed powders by hot pressing at 200 MPa pressure and 550 °C temperature for two hours. Then microstructural analysis, hardness and density measurements of powder metal composite parts were performed. After, the characterization of samples abrasion wear tests were performed according to ASTM-G99-05 by using TRIBOMETER T10/20 ball-on-disk abrasive wearing device. After the abrasive wear test of aluminum and composite powder metal parts produced under the identical test parameters, test results were compared and effect of Al2O3 on the wear properties of composite materials was exhibited. The test results showed that the composite parts have 62 % extra harness and better abrasion wear performance according to aluminum powder metal parts produced and tested under the identical conditions.
