Abstract

The present paper, deals with the investigation relating to dry sliding wear behaviour of aluminium alloy (Al 2024) reinforcing with varying percentage (0, 5, 10) of h-BN. Stir casting method have been used to fabricate aluminium matrix composites. Wear characteristics of metal matrix composite has been investigated using Pin-on-disc wear test set up as per ASTM standards G 99. Experiments were conducted based on the plan of experiments generated through Taguchi’s technique. A L9 Orthogonal array was selected for analysis of data. The purpose of investigation is to find out the influence of percentage of h-BN, applied load, sliding speed on wear during wearing process carried out. Signal-to-Noise ratio, multiple regression analysis, and Analysis of Variance were employed to investigate the wear behaviour of aluminium composite. Results shows that percentage of h-BN has the highest influence followed by applied load, sliding speed.
