摘要
To investigate the key factors that cause ZrB_(2)/AA6111 and(ZrB_(2)+Al_(3)Zr)/AA6111 aluminum matrix composites(AMCs)made via in situ reaction to behave differently in terms of friction and wear.Room-temperature dry sliding tribological behavior of AA6111 Al alloys,ZrB_(2)/AA6111,and(ZrB_(2)+Al_(3)Zr)/AA6111 AMCs against silicon nitride(Si_(3)N_(4))counterparts were investigated.The study showed that AA6111/Al alloy had the highest wear rate and the most unstable coefficient of friction(COF),indicating the worst abrasion resistance.(ZrB_(2)+Al_(3)Zr)/AA6111 AMCs exhibit a lower wear rate and higher COF than ZrB_(2)/AA6111 AMCs.The result proved that the Al_(3)Zr particles prepared by the in-situ reaction are strongly bonded(lattice misfitδ=2.7%)to the Al matrix and are not easily stripped from the substrate.ZrB_(2)/AA6111 AMCs exhibited a lower COF attributed to the tribochemical reaction inducing the formation of more boric acid(H_(3)BO_(3))films with a graphite-like structure having a lubricating effect.
