Investigate of Wear Behaviour and Mechanical Properties of Titanium Diboride Reinforced AMMC Composites

Aluminium materials are more consumed in the construction and automotive sector for their less corrosion and good machinability. The tribological properties of aluminium can
improve while adding reinforcement particles such as Titanium Boride, SiC, Al2O3, etc. This paper investigates the tribological and mechanical characteristics of the Al7075- TiB2 composite to improve its strength and hardness. The TiB2 is reinforced with various ratios like 6%, 12%, 15% for testing purposes. The boride powder was used to preheat up to 830oC with Al7075 for proper mixing. The mechanical properties (tensile and hardness) and metallurgical properties (Wear and Microstructural) are investigated through prepared samples. The composition of Al7075- TiB2 can analyse with the help of the EDAX process.
