Optimization of Engineering Properties in Al-7175/SiC/B4C Alloy

View through CrossRef
The growth of the industrial sector has resulted in a higher use of Aluminium Metal Matrix Composites (AMMCs). These composites are well-known for their exceptional mechanical and tribological qualities, attracting worldwide attention, especially in the automotive, architectural, and aerospace industries. Advanced Metal Matrix Composites (AMMCs) exhibit increased specific strength, improved strength-to-weight ratio at increasing temperatures, and better wear resistance when compared to the basic matrix without any additional components. SiC and B4C particle reinforcements are used to enhance the metallurgical and mechanical characteristics of the base matrix. Authors have used several production methods such as Powder Metallurgy for solid-state procedures and Stir Casting, Compo-casting, Squeeze Casting, and in-situ casting for liquid-state processes to create AMMCs. Stir casting is the most cost-effective and easy process for producing AMMC. This article provides an in-depth explanation of the procedure for producing Aluminium Matrix Metal Composites (AMMCs) utilising AL-7175 as the matrix material, together with B4C and SiC as reinforcements, with the stir casting technique.
