Sliding tests were conducted under dry and oil lubricated conditions against hardened DIN 100Cr6/EN31 steel counter surface. Wear rates of the matrix alloy and the metal matrix composite (MMC) were measured over load of 100 N under a speed of 4.71 m/s. Detailed scanning electron, optical microscopy analyses were undertaken to clarify the effect of SiC particles on tribological behavior. SiC reinforced AA5754 alloy exhibited lower wear rate than unreinforced alloy.en10.1007/s12666-016-0915-7info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAluminumSicMMCTribologyWear BehaviorAl-SiSliding WearHeat-TreatmentAlloyMicrostructureMechanismFrictionSpeedArticle70512331240Q3WOS:0003997032000092-s2.0-84974822422Q2
