Composites were produced by the pressure infiltration technique at 800 degrees C and had a B4C particle volume fraction of 60%. Reinforcement particles were uniformly distributed in the aluminium matrix. Compared with the AA1050 matrix, the weight loss of the composites decreased with increasing Mg content. The wear rate of the composites increased when the applied load and sliding distance were increased. The results show that when the applied load reaches critical values (30 N), the weight loss increases significantly.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAA1050-XMg/B4C compositesadhesive wearmechanical propertiesporosityArticle10.1515/secm-2015-03062-s2.0-85041022804731Q26725WOS:000422752400009Q4
