| Descripción: | IN-SITU Al2O3 SiC C having 20 wt%, 25 wt%, 30 wt% and 35wt% of powdered particulate were fabricated by liquid metallurgy (stir cast) method. The composite specimens were machined as per test standards. The specimens were tested to know the common casting defects using image analyzer. Some of the mechanical properties have been evaluated and compared with Al6061 alloy. Significant improvement in uniform distribution of particulates is noticeable as the wt % of the flake particles increases. The microstructures of the composites were studied to know the dispersion of the powdered particles in the matrix. It has been observed that addition of flake particles significantly improves particulate distribution. |
