Characterization of Aluminum Metal-Matrix Composite with SiC and B4C Reinforcement with Different Weight Percentage
Abstract: Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs) have been prepared by compo casting method. The effect of matrix material on the wettability/compatibility of refinement with matrix is studied. Silicon and boron ceramic particles were used as reinforcement in aluminum matrices. The study of density, micro-hardness and the tensile strength has been done in order to characterize the same. It is found that Al-SiC MMC shows an increase in density with increasing weight percentage …
