“…The microstructure-property correlation and wear behavior of in situ MMCs have been reported by many researchers (Yigezu,et al (5); Ravi Kumar, et al (6); Goto and Omori (7); Wu, et al (8); Al-Rubaie, et al (9), (10); Wang and Hutchings (11); Ipek (12); Patricia, et al (13); Tyagi (14); Zhang and Alpas (15)). Yigezu, et al (5) investigated the effect of applied load, sliding distance, and weight percentage of reinforcement on the abrasive wear characteristics of in situ synthesized Al-12Si/TiC composites using a pin-on-disk machine.…”

In the present research work, an aluminum-based metal matrix composite with in situ Al 4 SiC 4 particles has been developed by the incorporation of TiC particles in commercial aluminum melt through a stir-casting method. Microstructure evaluation in correlation to developed hardness and mechanical properties was performed. Furthermore, the dry sliding wear behavior of commercial aluminum and commercial aluminum-5 vol% Al 4 SiC 4 composite was investigated at low sliding speed (1 ms ¡1 ) against a hardened EN 31 disk at different loads. The wear mechanism involved adhesion and microcutting-abrasion at lower loads. On the other hand, at higher loads, abrasive wear involving microcutting along with adherent oxide formation was observed. The overall wear rate increased with load in the alloy as well as in the composite. Moreover, the overall wear rate of the composite was lower than that of the commercial aluminum at all applied loads.' The severe wear region at 39.2 N load in the case of the commercial aluminum-5 vol% Al 4 SiC 4 composite was found to be delayed up to a longer sliding distance compared to commercial aluminum. The in situ Al 4 SiC 4 particles offered resistance to adhesive wear. Accordingly, the commercial aluminum-5 vol% Al 4 SiC 4 composite exhibited superior wear resistance compared to the commercial aluminum.

Al alloy 7075 reinforced with Al2O3 particles of three different sizes (63,102, and 165 μm) were fabricated through the stir casting method. Dry sliding wear tests were conducted to evaluate the influence of load, sliding velocity and particle size on the wear loss and coefficient of friction of the composites using a pin-on-disc wear testing rig. Tests were conducted according to L9 Taguchi orthogonal array for three different loads (10, 30, and 50 N) at three different velocities (0.837, 1.674, and 2.512 m/s) for a constant time period of 30 minutes. The results showed that the wear increased with increasing load and sliding velocity whereas the coefficient of friction increased with increasing sliding velocity. On the contrary, the coefficient of friction decreased with increasing load. Composites reinforced with coarse Al2O3 particles exhibit superior wear resistance. It was found that the load was the most dominant factor influencing the wear loss and coefficient of friction followed by sliding velocity and particle size. A Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was used to study the morphology of the worn surfaces of the pins.

“…The prime reason for this being a decrease in the ductility of the composite by the addition of hard FA particles. 58 Prasat and Subramanian studied the friction and wear performance of FA and graphite reinforcement on hybrid composites. They found that with 9 wt% of FA and 3 wt% of graphite, the tribological properties shows a minimal value, owing to the load-bearing capacity and protective layer formation by FA particles in the composites showing only mild abrasive wear in composites.…”

Industrial wastes such as marble dust, fly ash, and red mud have progressed as an environmental hazard that needs to be disposed or utilized for minimizing the ecological pollution problems and manufacturing costs. Over the years, there is an increasing interest among researchers in utilizing these industrial wastes as reinforcement for developing economic and lightweight monolithic or hybrid composites. In the same context, this paper presents a comprehensive review on the aspects of tribology and thermal performance of industrial waste such as marble dust, fly ash, and red mud as reinforcement for different monolithic and hybrid composites. The review also describes different applications for industrial waste material reinforced composites. Finally, the paper concludes with authors’ perspective of the review, conclusion summary, and future potential of industrial waste filled composites in different industries for obtaining a sustainable and cleaner environment.
