Abstract: The study’s goal is to see how mechanical, wear, and thermal characteristics of ZA-27 alloy composites are all affected by macroscopic carbon fiber particles. The composites were made using the compo casting process, with carbon fiber particles used to strengthen the ZA-27 alloy. Under unlubricated circumstances, the pin on the disc equipment was subjected to wear testing at varied loads and speeds. With the addition of Carbon Fibre particles, it was discovered that the tribological quality improves. However, based on the results of the other parameters, in order to obtain better performance, the percentage of reinforcing must be tuned depending on the application requirements, and composites may be utilized as structural materials in a number of applications, including bearings and temperature control functions.
