Effect of Ky on Tribological and Thermal Properties of Al7075 Alloy: A Comprehensive Study on Wear, Friction, Temperature, and Load Dependencies

Dr. Syed Saleem Pasha & Mohammed Naveed & Rajashekar K S

The tribological and thermal properties of aluminum alloy 7075 (Al7075) are crucial for its performance in engineering applications. This study investigates the effect of potassium hexatitanate (Ky) addition on the tribological behavior of Al7075 alloy through comprehensive experimental analysis. The experimental methodology involves varying parameters such as sliding distance, sliding speed, load, and temperature to assess wear, coefficient of friction, and thermal effects. The results demonstrate that the addition of Ky enhances wear resistance and reduces friction coefficients across different conditions. Moreover, Ky addition contributes to improved thermal stability, mitigating temperature rise during sliding contact. Analysis of the findings reveals correlations between wear, friction, and temperature, highlighting the mechanisms governing tribological behavior. Comparison with previous studies underscores the unique advantages of Ky as an additive for aluminum alloys. These findings offer valuable insights for optimizing the tribological performance of Al7075 alloy and its potential applications in engineering.
