Abstract
Surface modification of silumin of the grade AK12 with plasma formed during an electrical explosion of aluminum foil with a sample of yttrium oxide powder placed in the explosion region (the electroexplosive doping method) is carried out. The thermodynamic analysis of the system Al-Si-Y-O is carried out. The phases formed in this system under equilibrium conditions are revealed. Investigations of the elemental and phase composition and the defective substructure are carried out. Mechanical (microhardness) and tribological (wear resistance and friction coefficient) tests of the modified material are performed. The physical mechanisms responsible for multiple enhancement of surface properties of the modified silumin samples are revealed.
