Effect of ball milling on graphene reinforced Al6061 composite fabricated by semi-solid sintering
TL;DR: In this paper, a 1.0-wt.% graphene reinforced aluminum 6061 (Al6061) composite was synthesized to investigate the effects of graphene dispersion by ball milling technique.
Journal ArticleDOI
Friction and wear behavior of Al–CNT composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of CNT content, sliding speed and applied load on the wear behavior of composites were investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the morphologies of the wear surfaces were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
