Titanium Matrix Composites (TMCs) have consists of attractive features whereas, it may tendency to high temperature properties and oxidation resistance respectively. Though, these applications of its alloys and titanium were under the severe friction and wear surroundings are highly limited because of poor tribological properties and low hardness. Dry sliding behaviour on Ti6Al4V alloy and Ti6Al4V/2.5%TiB2-2.5%TiC composite fabricated by powder metallurgy method was investigated. While, its wear and the friction behaviour of TMCs are examined by means of a pin[1]on-disk wear tester under various conditions. The results show that the specific wear rate rises with an increasing in the sliding speed simultaneously. Effects of TiB2 and TiC addition on the microstructure and the wear characteristics of titanium alloy specimens were analysed with the help of Field Emission-Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS). It was found that the wear resistance of the Ti6Al4V matrix was improved due to the addition of TiB2 and TiC associated to that sterilized Ti6Al4V.
