A NALYSIS OF WORN - OUT SURFACE igs. 18, 19, and 20 present scanning electron microscope (SEM) micrographs depicting the worn surface morphologies of AA7075 hybrid composites reinforced with varying weight fractions of TiB 2 and ZrO 2 particles. The intrinsic high hardness of AA7075 alloy imparts substantial resistance against plastic deformation within the F
