Magnesium is a promising lightweight metal required in many industries such as automobile, aerospace, electronics, etc. It is also a biodegradable material, which eliminates the secondary removal procedure of the implant. Furthermore, its mechanical properties are similar to the mechanical properties of human bone.  In this research, eggshells were used as an environmentally friendly composite reinforcement material in the Mg-2.5Zn-1Mn matrix. Composites were prepared using the powder metallurgy route.  The effect of eggshells on the morphology, mechanical, and corrosion behaviour of Mg-2.5Zn-1Mn alloy was investigated. The results revealed an enhancement in grain refining ability and mechanical properties of Mg-2.5Zn-1Mn with eggshell additives. The corrosion behaviour improved at a higher percentage of eggshells (10%).

Metal matrix composites attain a significant position in Industrial, defense, structural and automobile applications. To amplify that strategy there is a need to find out the conditional behavior of the composites and enhancing the properties will be mandatory. The present work mainly investigates on the effect of processing parameters like densification rates, sintering temperature, reinforcement content on the microstructure, mechanical properties of the Al7175/B4C composite material fabricated by mechanical milling and powder metallurgy techniques. Results show there is a grain size reduction and refinement in the composite material through ball milling operations and along with that increasing B4C content in the composite powders make milling conditions very effective. Increasing the sintering temperature results in a consistent grain growth along with that porosity level decreases up to a limit and then attain a steady state, the strength of the composites increases with compaction pressures but reinforcements content effects the strength of the material by losing its ductility making it brittle.

Mechanical And Tribological Properties

Mechanical properties and tribological behaviour of AA6061 and AA7015 aluminium matrix composites reinforced with Ti3Al intermetallics have been studied. Processing of the composites consisted of a combination of powder metallurgy and extrusion techniques. High tensile strength was attained on both alloys, although composites did not improve these properties. Also ductility was impaired on composites, but values above 10% were obtained in every case. Regarding friction coefficient, all composites showed a lower value with respect to base alloys, being lower as the amount of reinforcement increased. Wear behaviour of composites was improved.
