Dry Sliding Wear Behavior of (MWCNT + GNPs) Reinforced AZ91 Magnesium Matrix Hybrid Composites

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study aims to improve tribological performance of magnesium alloy with the addition of carbonaceous (C-based) reinforcements.
Synergetic effects of MWCNT and GNPs on wear performance of AZ91 magnesium alloy was evaluated withthis report. AZ91-0.3 wt% MWCNT and AZ91-0.15 wt% MWCNT-0.15 wt% GNPs hybrid composites were synthesizedusing hot pressing via semi powder metallurgy. Microstructures were examined by scanning electron microscope and x-raydiffraction test devices then hardness and wear tests were performed for all samples. Results clearly show that hardnessand wear behaviors of AZ91 magnesium alloy were improved significantly with the addition of reinforcements. Uniformdistribution of carbon atoms was achieved for both of two samples. AZ91-0.15 wt% MWCNT-0.15 wt% GNPs compositeshowed best wear performance among the specimens.
