Abstract
An attempt has been made in this study to examine the effects produced by the reinforcement of (10 wt%) SiC particles on the sliding wear behavior of a Zn-base alloy. The matrix alloy was also subjected to identical test conditions to assess the influence of the SiC dispersoid phase. The wear characteristics of the (Zn-base alloy) composite and the matrix alloy were also compared with those of a Cu-base alloy (i.e., an aluminum bronze) in order to understand the scope of exploiting the Zn-base alloy matrix/composite as a substitute material for the latter (Cu-base) alloy.
