	%X Powder metallurgy (P/M) is the only economic way to
produce porous parts/products. P/M can produce near net shape parts
hence reduces wastage of raw material and energy, avoids various
machining operations. The most vital use of P/M is in production of
metallic filters and self lubricating bush bearings and siding surfaces.
The porosity of the part can be controlled by varying compaction
pressure, sintering temperature and composition of metal powder
mix. The present work is aimed for experimental analysis of friction
and wear properties of self lubricating copper and tin bush bearing.
Experimental results confirm that wear rate of sintered component
is lesser for components having 10% tin by weight percentage. Wear
rate increases for high tin percentage (experimented for 20% tin and
30% tin) at same sintering temperature. Experimental results also
confirms that wear rate of sintered component is also dependent on
sintering temperature, soaking period, composition of the preform,
compacting pressure, powder particle shape and size.
Interfacial friction between die and punch, between inter powder
particles, between die face and powder particle depends on
compaction pressure, powder particle size and shape, size and shape
of component which decides size & shape of die & punch, material of
die & punch and material of powder particles.
