In this work, an analysis of the wear behaviour of composites consisting of zirconium silicate and Al6063 was attempted. This composite was fabricated using the stir casting technique. There were variations in the zirconium silicate particles in increments of 0%, 3%, 6%, 9%, and 12%. Utilising Pin-on-Disc wear testing apparatus, the wear behaviour of Al6063–Zirconium Silicate composites was investigated. The design of the tests, which was developed by applying Taguchi’s method, was followed when conducting the trials. The zirconium silicate particles are uniformly dispersed throughout the Al6063 matrix, as seen by the scanning electron micrographs of the Al6063–zirconium silicate composites. Using a universal testing machine, the tensile strength of the produced composites was evaluated. The Brinell Hardness Testing apparatus was utilised in order to perform the task of determining the level of hardness possessed by the composite materials that were developed. When zirconium silicate particles are added, the composites’ tensile strength and hardness both increases. It is possible to see grooves in the SEM micrographs of the Al6063–zirconium silicate composites’ worn-out surfaces. With rise in load, the quantity of wear debris in the composite material likewise increases. The sliding distance, followed by speed, weight percentage, and load, is the most significant factor to take into account, according to the results of the Taguchi test. Automotive parts including cylinders, pistons, and brake drums are made of the created composites. |
