The silumin was prepared with the use of two different technologies which differed in terms of cooling speed. In the first case the alloy was modified with foundry alloy CuP10 and cast to a standard tester ATD and in case of second option the modified alloy was cast into steel casting die. Due to different speed of heat removal the silumins varied in structure, particularly with size of primary crystals of silicon and their distribution in matrix which had a significant influence of friction coefficient in conditions of dry friction.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Influence of Casting Conditions on Tribological Properties of A390.0 Alloy}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/101901/PDF/afe-2016-0057.pdf}, doi={10.1515/afe-2016-0057}, keywords={The Al-Si cast alloys, Tribological properties, Friction coefficient, Casting conditions}, }
