Abstract Aluminum/graphite (Al/Gr) composites have been used as self-lubricating materials
due to the superior lubricating effect of graphite during sliding. This paper summarizes …

The paper deals with the considerations related to the basic properties and application of
primarily aluminum alloys and composite materials for different purposes with the focus on …

In the present study, based on the literature review, the individual and combined effect of
reinforcements on Aluminium Metal Matrix Composites is discussed. These Aluminium Metal …

We study wear and friction of dry and lubricated aluminum-graphite composites and the
transition between lubrication regimes. Using Principal Component Analysis, we perform …

The importance of composites as engineering materials is reflected by the fact that out of
over 1600 engineering materials available in the market today more than 200 are …

The friction-wear response of surfactant functionalized MWCNT-in-oil suspension under
hybrid aluminium metal matrix composite/EN31 contact is presented. Composites were …

The piston ring and cylinder liner materials encounter challenges under limited lubricated
conditions leading to high friction and wear. Although, several materials, from cast iron to …

Tribology and Applications of Self-Lubricating Materials provides insight into the complex
mechanisms behind the development of self-lubricating materials, which due to their ability …

Self-lubricating metal matrix composites (SLMMCs) are an important category of
engineering materials that are increasingly replacing a number of conventional materials in …

The wear behaviour comparison of Al/SiC and Al/Al2O3 composites prepared by stir casting
technique is investigated to find out the effects of weight percentage of SiC/Al2O3, load and …
