“…This action could have resulted from the contact made between the rotating disc and oxide layer (Al 2 O 3 ) formed in aluminium alloy. 7,33,34 In their studies, Xavier and Suresh 33 found that the Al 2 O 3 layer could act as a protective layer inhibiting metal-to-metal contact between the sliding surfaces and reduces the wear rate. Furthermore, this Al 2 O 3 is formed by the transfer of materials when sliding aluminium composites against the stainless steel counterface and thereby improving the wear resistance.…”

This study was conducted to investigate the synthesis, characterization and mechanical properties of aluminium reinforced with ferrotitanium and silicon carbide via stir casting technique. Microstructures of as-cast samples were analysed using optical and scanning electron microscopes equipped with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The mechanical properties in terms of hardness, tensile, tribological behaviour and fracture were assessed. Results showed that the homogeneous dispersion of reinforcement was within the metal matrix composite. Tribological study revealed a decrease in frictional coefficient of the composites with lowest frictional coefficient observed in composite with addition of silicon carbide as reinforcement. Morphology of fractured surface displayed a reduction in the size of dimples formed in reinforced aluminium composites when compared with larger dimple sizes observed in as-cast aluminium alloy.
