Wear properties of potassium titanate whiskers-reinforced Al-12Si alloy composites

Potassium titanate (K2O·6TiO2) whiskers-reinforced Al-12Si alloy composites were prepared by the squeeze casting technique. Wear properties of the composites were investigated by pin-on-disc tests under dry conditions. The experimental results showed that K2O·6TiO2 whiskers can effectively reinforce...
