Powder metallurgy is one of the best methods to achieve uniform distribution of reinforcement in to the matrix. In this Paper, characterization of microstructure and hardness of aluminum alloy matrix composites reinforced with boron fiber particles prepared by powder metallurgy technique are investigated. The effects of boron fiber (Coarse particles size of 120 µm and Fine particles size of 50 µm) on mechanical properties were studied. Increasing the reinforcement of boron fiber content with 5%, 10% and15% into the matrix improved the mechanical properties. The percentage of boron fiber reinforcement increasing the strength of the hardness number is also increasing simultaneously, the aluminum alloys and boron fiber particles on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the composites were investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with Energy dispersive spectrum (EDS) analyses indicated. Analysis and observing microstructure of the composite is boron fiber particles are uniformly dispersed in the aluminum alloy matrix composites.

Incineration Ashes

This research article describes the newly developed composite material using the artificial pellets made of incineration ashes and recycled aluminum alloys. The factor affecting its various properties was investigated and discussed. Through trial and error, the hybrid preform with good soundness and preferable dispersion of the pellets could be obtained. The density and compression strength and thermal conductivity were measured in comparison of other structural materials.

During processing, metal matrix attempts to deform and this deformation plays the key role in the microstructural events of segregation and precipitation at the matrix-reinforcement interface. The important aspect of this behaviour is to identify the strengthening micro-characteristics which enhance the material's interphasial reactions in order to improve the bonding properties of the matrix-reinforcement interface. This work focuses on the non-equilibrium segregation which arises due to imbalances in point defect concentrations set up around interfaces during non-equilibrium heat treatment processing of SiC particle reinforced aluminium matrix composites. The important factors affecting the heat treatment process are the temperature, the cooling rate, the concentration of solute atoms and the binding energy between solute atoms and vacancies. Aluminium – silicon – magnesium alloy matrix reinforced with varying amounts of silicon carbide particles were used in this study. Samples in the as-received and heat treated condition were examined by microstructural and microhardness analyses. Based on the analysis, it has been observed that the macroscopic mechanical behaviour of the composite is influenced by several factors including the manufacturing process, the processing conditions, the inter-particle distance, as well as the mean size and the percentage of reinforcement.
