Abstract |
|
Investigation is carried out to improve the tribological properties of the ZA-27 alloy by adding 10% copper and adding copper it is called as modified ZA-27 alloy. The wear behaviour of the modified ZA-27 alloy was studied by performing dry sliding wear test using pin-on-disc and wear is monitored by varying the load and sliding speed. Results show that addition of Cu in the ZA-27 alloy has better wear resistance than the plain ZA-27 alloy. Sliding speed of 1.5 m/s can be considered as critical sliding speed for all loads. Coefficient of friction is decreased with increase in the normal load and sliding speed where as frictional force is increased with the normal load and decrease with the sliding speed. |
