Corrosion of Aluminium and Zinc-Aluminium Alloys Based Metal-Matrix Composites
Journal Title: Tribology in Industry - Year 2009, Vol 31, Issue 3
Abstract
Corrosion behaviour of metal-matrix composites (MMCs) with aluminium and zincaluminium alloy substrate was discussed. MMCs corrosion forms and parameters affecting MMCs corrosion were described as well as corrosion testing methods. The corrosion characteristics of MMCs with zinc-aluminium alloy ZA-27 matrix reinforced by graphite particles, glass fibres and zircon particles were presented.

Numerical Analyses of the Non-Newtonian Flow Performance and Thermal Effect on a Bearing Coated with a High Tin Content
The hydrodynamic bearings are stressed by severe workings conditions, such as speed, load, and the oil will be increasingly solicit by pressure and shear. The Newtonian behavior is far from being awarded in this case, th...
Slew Bearings Damage Detection using Hilbert Huang Transformation and Acoustic Methods
Slow speed slew bearings are widely used in many applications such us radar, aviation and aerospace units, bogie bearings for vehicles, harbor and shipyard cranes. Slew bearings are design to carry out high axial and rad...
Studies on Adhesive Wear Characteristics of Heat Treated Aluminium LM25/AlB2 Composites
The main aim of this study was to determine the adhesive wear characteristics of heat treated LM 25/AlB2 metal matrix composites fabricated using liquid metallurgy route. The composite samples were solutionized at 525 °C...
Erosion-corrosion Behaviour of Dual Phase Medium Carbon Steel using a Designed Slurry Pot
A slurry pot has been designed, fabricated and evaluated for erosion-corrosion investigations. A variable voltage controller was used to vary the input voltage into the one-horse-power motor that controls the slurry pot....
Effect of Lubricant Viscosity and Surface Roughness on Coefficient of Friction in Rolling Contact
The main objective of this paper is to investigate the effect of surface roughness and lubricant viscosity on coefficient of friction in silicon nitride- steel rolling contact. Two samples of silicon nitride with two dif...
