Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The wear resistance of titanium, under dry friction conditions can be appreciably increased by employing the metal in the form of composites infiltrated with low-melting-point metals and alloys.

  2. 2.

    In the friction and wear investigation described the best combination of bearing properties was found to be exhibited by a Ti-(Bi-Pb-Sn-Cd) material with a metallic lubricant content of 20–25 vol.%. The optimum duration of infiltration, involving immersion in molten metal, was 60 min. In the load range investigated the operating performance of the material improved with increasing sliding speed.
