Abstract

There is always a demand for lighter but with high strength materials in many industrialapplications including automobile and aerospace industries. Reinforced aluminiumAluminium has been used for these applications for many years. Researchers worked out witha variety of reinforcements. In the present paper, use of fly ash is investigated by usingpowder metallurgy technique. Fly ash composition can raise up to hardness, and density,corrosion & wear rate can also be reduced. According to the findings of this study, fly ashfrom industrial waste can be converted into industrial wealth through the creation oflightweight composites with increased strength that can be utilized in the aviation andautomobile industries.
