【 摘 要 】

This dataset describes the tribological properties of aluminum-silicon alloys when reinforced with two types of nanoparticles: silica and clay. Moreover, two types of aluminum-silicon alloys were chosen as matrices. These alloys are used in the piston and cylinder-head parts of an automobile engine part. The percentage of nanoparticles was about 1 wt. %. All specimens were developed through the stir casting method. The range of casting temperature was about 700−850 °C. Stirring times for aluminum alloy melts were 2 and 4 min. Ageing heat treatment was also applied for some specimens after the casting process. The Vickers hardness instrument, a pin-on-disk tribometer, and compression test were utilized to collect the data. In addition, to analyze data, a Design-Expert software was used. The data contain hardness, wear rate, friction coefficient, and compression elastic module for aluminum-silicon alloy specimens.
