Simeonova %J Tribology in Industry %D 2011 %I University of Kragujevac %X A procedure is developed for the study of wear of aluminum alloys AlSi7 obtained by casting, reinforced by TiC microparticles, before and after heat treatment. Tribological study is realized under conditions of friction on counterbody with fixed abrasive. Experimental results were obtained for mass wear, wear rate, wear intensity and wear-resistance of the alloys with different wt% of microparticles. %K tribology %K composite aluminum alloys %K microparticles %K wear %K wear-resistance %U http://www.tribology.fink.rs/journals/2011/2011-2/2.pdf
