Experimental Analysis on the Forgeability and the Mechanical Properties of Aluminum Silicon Carbide Metal Matrix Composites
Aluminium Metal Matrix Composites is a relatively new material among all the engineering materials. It has proved its position in automobile, aerospace, and many other engineering applications due its wear resistance properties and due to its substantial hardness. Forgeability is one such criteria by which the workability of the material determines. The forgeability of Aluminum Metal Matrix Composites produced by powder metallurgy route are mostly depends on the size and percentage of reinforcement materials, impact load, sintering temperature and soaking time etc. In this present study, the forgeabilityof Aluminum Metal Matrix Composites reinforced with silicon carbide (400 mesh) is investigated. A comparative study have been made with different types of composite materials contAlns 0％ 5％ ,10％ and 15％ by weight of silicon carbide. The mechanical properties like hardness of the composites are also measured. It is observed that the forgeabilty of the composites decreases on increasing the wt％ of SiC and the mechanical properties like hardness enhanced on increasing the wt％ of SiC.
