Abstract
The study objective is to define the influence of various modifiers on the tribotechnical properties of an aluminum and silicon alloy. Determination of the most optimal additives in alloys that would reduce the friction factor and increase the unit load at which friction pairs set in comparison with the starting material, as well as determination of their wear resistance.
Research methods are tests conducted for friction and wear of samples based on aluminum and silicon according to the following: plane (test sample) – the sleeve end (steel 40X), as well as conducting tests with the supply of free abrasive into the friction zone according to the following: flat sample - forming surface of a rubber disc.
Research results and novelty: the influence of modifiers in the aluminum and silicon alloy composition on wear resistance and friction ratio at different loads and sliding speeds in a friction pair with steel are established.
Conclusions: the regularities of changes in the friction ratio from pressure and speed, the load of seizure from the sliding speed are obtained. The wear resistance of samples with various inclusions is higher compared to the base material.
