Al 7075

The present investigation involves studying the mechanical properties of the fabricated aluminium 7075 hybrid metal matrix composites reinforced with various weight % of SiC and Al2 O3 particulates by stir casting method. The Al 7075 hybrid metal matrix composites specimen were fabricated using L9 orthogonal array. The mechanical properties like Brinell Harness (BHN), Rockwell Hardness (HRC) and impact loads were experimented. The mechanical properties like hardness and impact loads have improved with the increase in weight percentage of SiC and Al2O3 particulates in the hybrid aluminium matrix.

It is well known that the addition of ceramic phases in an alloy e.g. aluminum, in form of fibers or particles influences its mechanical properties. This leads to a new generation of materials, which are called metal matrix composites (MMCs). They have found a lot of application during the last twenty-five years due to their low density, high strength and toughness, good fatigue and wear resistance. Aluminum matrix composites reinforced by ceramic particles are well known for their good thermophysical and mechanical properties. As a result, during the last years, there has been a considerable interest in using aluminum metal matrix composites in the automobile industry. Automobile industry use aluminum alloy matrix composites reinforced with SiC or Al2O3 particles for the production of pistons, brake rotors, calipers and liners. However, no reference could be cited in the international literature concerning aluminum reinforced with TiB particles and Fe and Cr, although these composites are very promising for improving the mechanical properties of this metal without significantly alter its corrosion behavior. Several processing techniques have been developed for the production of reinforced aluminum alloys. This paper is concerned with the study of TiB, Fe and Cr reinforced aluminum produced by the stir-casting method.
