In this study, an attempt has been made to determine the effect of the addition of reinforcement B4C in Cu-Ni-Sn. The B4C is reinforced to form a hybrid Cu matrix composite with powder metallurgy technique. The hybrid composites are obtained by milling, blending, and compacting the powders to obtain a fine grain-sized particle without aggregation. The grain size and particle nature were characterized using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques, respectively. The microstructure, density, hardness, and wear rate of the composites were studied. The pin-on-disc method is equipped to study the wear behaviour and coefficient of friction. The sintered density of the prepared Cu-15%Ni is 98.25 %, Cu-8%Sn is 98.20 %, Cu-15%Ni-8%Sn is 98.10 % and Cu-15%Ni-8%Sn-2%B4C is 95.26 % and lower specific wear rate has been recorded for Cu-15Ni-8Sn-2B4C 121×10-6 mm3/(Nm) and the addition of reinforcement B4C in Cu-Ni-Sn displays remarkable changes in wear rate and friction coefficientTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverza v Ljubljani, Fakulteta za strojništvo
