Abstract
⺠Cenospheres in ASF are hollow spherical particles; these particles roll over the mating surface and help in reducing coefficient of friction and wear rate. ⺠The hollow cenospheres on the surface and subsurface provide more cushioning action against the applied load. ⺠These craters (exposed hollow cenospheres), under lubricating condition act as reservoir for lubricants and continuously feed the mating surface with lubricant. ⺠In composites, dense SiC particles penetrate deep into the counter surface and thus exhibit higher coefficient of friction and higher wear rate. ⺠Because of more scratching action frictional heating in AMC is more than that in ASF.
