Abstract

Metal matrix composites (MMCs) are gaining wide spread popularity in several technological fields owing to its improved mechanical properties when compared with conventional metals/alloys. Aluminium 7075 is widely used in several applications like aerospace, aircraft, automobile & construction where superior material properties are required. This paper discusses the development of Aluminium 7075 cenosphere composites by stir casting technique and analyzes the experimental results of adhesive wear behavior of this composite. Based on the different percentages of cenospheres used in the preparation of the composite, Aluminium 7075 cenosphere composites with better features in terms of adhesive wear resistance, hardness have been developed.
