Abstract

The present research explores the fabrication and characterization of AA7075/MoS₂/Red-mud hybrid composites (HC) through vacuum-assisted stir casting, varying both reinforcement contents from 5 to 15 wt%. Various tests were conducted, including microstructural evolution, XRD, hardness, and impact strength. The fretting wear test was performed at various temperatures (i.e., room temperature, 50 °C, and 100 °C). The coefficient of friction first increased and then decreased with temperature for higher MoS₂ content composite, whereas hardness increased and impact strength reduced. Various second-phase particles, including SiO₂, Fe₂O₃, Al₂O₃, MoS₂, MgO, and MgZn, were detected in the developed HCs, directly influencing the mechanical and tribological properties.

期刊介绍： Vacuum is an international rapid publications journal with a focus on short communication. All papers are peer-reviewed, with the review process for short communication geared towards very fast turnaround times. The journal also published full research papers, thematic issues and selected papers from leading conferences. A report in Vacuum should represent a major advance in an area that involves a controlled environment at pressures of one atmosphere or below. The scope of the journal includes: 1. Vacuum; original developments in vacuum pumping and instrumentation, vacuum measurement, vacuum gas dynamics, gas-surface interactions, surface treatment for UHV applications and low outgassing, vacuum melting, sintering, and vacuum metrology. Technology and solutions for large-scale facilities (e.g., particle accelerators and fusion devices). New instrumentation ( e.g., detectors and electron microscopes). 2. Plasma science; advances in PVD, CVD, plasma-assisted CVD, ion sources, deposition processes and analysis. 3. Surface science; surface engineering, surface chemistry, surface analysis, crystal growth, ion-surface interactions and etching, nanometer-scale processing, surface modification. 4. Materials science; novel functional or structural materials. Metals, ceramics, and polymers. Experiments, simulations, and modelling for understanding structure-property relationships. Thin films and coatings. Nanostructures and ion implantation.
