These light weight materials with high thermal conductivity are the right choice of the materialist for the wear resistant applications. The natural rutile mineral is used as reinforcement with the LM13, a piston alloy for the preparation of the composite. The wear studies have been carried out with the fine size rutile particles of range 50-75 µm with 20% wt. in the aluminium matrix with the variation in applied load. The wear track morphological studies were done using scanning electron microscope and wear debris analysis carried out with electron dispersive spectroscopy.
