Abstract

The present analysis gives an insight to understand the effect of load and temperature on dry gliding wear behavior of titanium and Ti/(TiB + TiC) in situ composites. Ti/(TiB + TiC) in situ composites were fabricated by blending Ti-B4C powders in different proportions to obtain desired amount of TiB and TiC particulates. At elevated temperatures, the predominant wear mechanism for titanium is adhesion and metal flow, whereas in Ti/(TiB + TiC) in situ composites the wear mechanism is oxidation and delamination.
