The current study looked at how 90 micron-diameter B4C particles affected the wear behavior of Al2219 metal composites. Stir-cast Al2219 composites with 2-4 % B4C particle weight percentage were developed. The microstructural characterization of these generated composites was studied using SEM and EDS analysis to determine the distribution and components of micron-sized particles. Under different loads and sliding speeds, the wear behavior of Al2219 with 2-4 % B4C composites was investigated using ASTM G99 criteria. The aggregation of B4C concentration improved Al2219's wear resistance. The wear of Al2219 and its composites increased as the load and speed of the specimen increased. SEM investigation revealed several worn surface characteristics.
