摘要：Within the last few years there has been a rapid increase in the utilization of aluminum-silicon alloys,particularly in the automobile industries, due to their high strength to weight ratio, high wear resistance, low densityand low coefficient of thermal expansion. The advancements in the field of application make the study of their wearand tensile behavior of utmost importance. In this present investigation, Aluminum based alloys containing 7%, 12%and 14% weight of Silicon were synthesized using casting method. Compositional analysis and tensile studies ofdifferent samples of same composition have shown near uniform distribution of Si in the prepared alloys. Study ofmicrostructure has showed the presence of primary silicon. Tensile tests were carried out with universal testingmachine. Yield strength and ultimate tensile strength has increased with increase in silicon percentage. Wear behaviorwas studied by using computerized pin on disc wear testing machine. Resistance to wear has increased with increase insilicon amount. The worn surfaces were analyzed using scanning electron micros
