In order to make full use of the wear resistance and antifriction of the mixed reinforced particles, improve the performance and utilization rate of the composite material, and reduce its wear amount, in this study, graphite and aluminum composite materials with different graphite concentration were prepared by powder metallurgy process. On this basis, the influence of different graphite concentration on the friction coefficient and wear amount of composite samples and different load on the wear amount of composite materials were discussed and analyzed. The results show that with the increase of graphite content, the friction coefficient and wear amount of the composite will decrease correspondingly. When the load is less than 30 N, the wear curve of the sample changes steadily. When the load is more than 30 N, the wear will increase sharply. Therefore, the analysis of the tribological properties of the graphite and aluminum composites based on the powder metallurgy process plays an important role in improving the utilization rate of the composite and reducing its wear.

The paper presents mechanical and tribological properties of Al2O3/ZrO2 composite sinters with different proportions of Al2O3 and ZrO2 phases. These materials are commonly used in dry friction contact due to relatively low manufacturing costs of even complex shapes of products and the possibility of working at elevated temperatures. The tests were carried out by the ball-on-disc method at temperatures of 20, 150, 300, and 500°C. A ball made of Al2O3 was used as a counterpart. The results were compared with the following sintered mono-phase materials: Al2O3(alumina) and tetragonal yttria-stabilized ZrO2 polycrystallines (Y-TZP). The tests showed the significantly better properties of composite materials.

Purpose: Carbon nanotubes are used in composite materials due to the improvement of (including tribological) properties of composites, especially thermoplastic matrix composites. This demonstrates the potential of CNTs and the validity of research on determining the impact of this type of reinforcement on the composite materials under development. Design/methodology/approach: The article presents selected results of research on polymer composites made of C.E.S. R70 resin, C.E.S. H72 hardener with the addition of a physical friction modifier (CNTs) with a percentage by volume of 18.16% and 24.42%, respectively, which also acts as a reinforcement. The produced material was subjected to hardness measurements according to the Shore method and EDS analysis. The study of abrasive wear in reciprocating movement was carried out using the Taber Linear Abraser model 5750 tribotester and a precision weight. The surface topography of the composite material after tribological tests was determined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Some of the mentioned tests were carried out on samples made only of resin, used as the matrix of the tested polymer composite. Findings: Carbon nanotubes used in polymer matrix composites, including bisphenol A/F epoxy resin have an influence on the tribological properties of the material. The addition of carbon nanotubes contributed to a 24% increase in the Ra parameter relative to pure resin, to a level corresponding to rough grinding of steel. Research limitations/implications: The results of the tests indicate the need to continue research in order to optimize the composition of composites in terms of operating parameters of friction nodes in broadly understood aviation. Originality/value: The analysed literature did not find any studies on the impact of the addition of carbon nanotubes on epoxy resins based on bisphenol A/F. Due to the wide scope of application of such resins, the properties of such composite materials in which carbon nanotubes are the reinforcing phase have been investigated.

EN AW-AlCu4MgSi(A) aluminium alloy is widely used as a structural material in aerospace and automotive applications. We have subjected it to grinding, polishing and ball burnishing. We have performed ball-on-disk tribological tests. We have also determined normalized 3D roughness parameters. High surface smoothness turns out to be obtainable. Favorable effect of the ball burnishing on the tribological properties of the alloy are seen. Results will be presented at the Conference.
