Tribological Behavior of Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>-MoO<sub>2</sub>-SiO<sub>2</sub> Composite Ceramic Coating on Al-Zn-Mg-Cu Alloy

In order to enhance wear properties of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy parts, Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>-MoO<sub>2</sub>-SiO<sub>2</sub> composite ceramic coatings are formed on Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy by the DC micro-arc oxidation (MAO) method in the silicate electrolyt...
