Abstract The recent advancement in graphene-reinforced aluminium matrix composites improves wear behaviour in the production of lightweight and high-performance nanocomposites. Considerable works have been devoted to using graphene nanoparticles as solid self-lubricants to increase wear resistance, minimise friction coefficients, improve service efficiency, and extend the lifespan of related sliding components. In general, wear behaviour often depends on the homogeneous distribution of graphene ...

Thixoforming is a promising method that offers several advantages over both liquid and solid processing. This process utilizes semi-solid behaviour and reduces macrosegregation, porosity and forming forces during the shaping process. Microstructural and mechanical characterization of 0.3, 0.5 and 1.0 wt% graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) reinforced A356 aluminium alloy composite fabricated by thixoforming was investigated. Stir casting was employed to fabricate feedstocks before they were thixoformed at ...

The optical and scanning electron microscopes were applied to investigate the microstructure of the as-cast material and heat-treated ECAPed Al–Si–Mg alloy. The dry sliding wear test was tested with three different loads of 10 N, 50 N, and 100 N with constant sliding speed and sliding distance at 1.0 m/s and 9000 m, ...
