The Effect of Accelerated Aging Temperature on Friction and Wear Properties of AZ91 Alloy

Abstract

In this study, casting material of AZ91 alloys have used as test specimens. Four kinds of test specimens aging-treated at 150℃, 175℃, 225℃ and 300℃ for 100 hours were used. The effect of temperature on accelerated aging on their friction and wear properties were evaluated by a pin-on-disk tester under dry condition at room temperature. As a result, it became clear that the coefficient of friction and the wear-resistance were affected by the accelerated aging temperature.
