Magnesium metal matrix composites (MMCs) have been receiving attention in recent years as an attractive choice for aerospace and automotive applications because of their low density and superior specific properties. Using stir casting process, AZ91 magnesium alloy metal matrix composites have been produced with different weight percentages (5, 10, 15, 20 and 25) of silicon carbide particles (SiCp) addition. Microstructural characterization reveals uniform distribution of SiC particles with good interfacial bonding between the matrix and reinforcement. Electrical conductivity and Co-efficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE) measurements carried out on these composites have yielded better properties. Improved mechanical properties such as hardness, ultimate tensile strength, and compressive strength are obtained. The microfracture mechanisms involved during tensile fracture is analyzed and correlated with the properties obtained.
