[ 1 ] - SYNTHESIS OF FUNCTIONALLY GRADED Al LM25/ZIRCONIA COMPOSITE AND ITS SLIDING WEAR CHARACTERIZATION USING RESPONSE SURFACE METHODOLOGY

Functionally graded aluminium/zirconia metal matrix composite was fabricated using stir casting technique followed by horizontal centrifugal casting process and a hollow cylindrical functionally graded composite (150 x 150 x 16 mm) was obtained with centrifuging speed of 1200 rpm. The microstructural evaluation and hardness test was carried out on the outer and inner surface of the functionally...
