Abstract: Aluminum alloy metal matrix composites (Al-MMCs) have been considered as promising materials for aerospace and automotive industries due to their excellent balance of physical, mechanical, and tribological properties. In ...

Abstract: Surface modification is the major means to improving the wear resistance of copper alloys. In this study, Cu–Mo coatings were prepared on Cu–Cr–Zr alloy by laser cladding, and the high-temperature tribological properties ...

Abstract: High-temperature wear-resistant Cu–Ni–Sn/WC composite coatings were fabricated via laser cladding. The effects of WC–17Co content on the microstructure, microhardness, and high-temperature tribological properties at room ...

Abstract: Copper–molybdenum alloys exhibit important potential for applications in conductive and wear-resistant material. In this research, Cu–Mo coatings were fabricated by laser cladding, and the current-carrying tribological ...

Abstract: Wear-resistant aluminum alloys have enormous potential applications. In this paper, the Al–20Si–5Fe–2Ni alloy was fabricated by hot-pressed sintering, and its dry sliding wear behavior was investigated from 25 °C to 500 °C ...

Abstract: The synergistic effect of solid lubricants plays a significant role in wide-temperature-range lubrication, where the combination of lubricious oxide and Ag is the promising solid lubricants. In this paper, the friction and ...

Abstract: High-strength Cu–25Zn–5Al–3Fe–3Mn brass has broad applications as a wear-resistant copper alloy, while its tribological behavior at high temperatures has not yet been well investigated. In this paper, the tribological ...
