Tribological behaviour of hybrid-reinforced LM30 aluminium metal matrix composites

Abstract The development of wear-resistant materials is critical for researchers aiming to extend the life of sliding components employed in mechanical engineering fields by reducing friction-related energy losses. The motive of the study is to fabricate the hybrid composites of aluminium which include the reinforcements made of mullite (Mul), silicon carbide (SiC), and tungsten disulphide (WS 2 ) for different tribological purposes. The composites were made using stir casting mechanism by varyi
