Tribo-surface characteristics of two aluminium metal matrix composites (Al-MMC) of compositions Al-13 volB4C and Al-13 volSiC sliding against a commercial phenolic brake pad have been investigated under dry conditions. The wear tests were carried out using a pin-on-disc type apparatus at a linear sp...
