摘要
The friction stir process (FSP) can be used to prepare carbon nanotubes (CNTs) forming reinforced Al matrix composites. The effect of CNTs content on the wear behaviour and hardness of aluminium based composites was studied. Adding CNTs effectively strengthens the matrix, and significantly improves the hardness of the composites. Composite wear test results showed that the addition of CNTs could enhance the wear resistance of the matrix. With increasing CNTs content, the wear resistance of the matrix markedly improved. The wear curve of the materials is a smooth curve.
