    Particulate reinforced aluminium matrix composites are being considered for their superior mechanical and tribological properties over the conventional aluminium alloys, and therefore, these composites have gained extensive applications in automotive and aerospace industries. In this investigation, the fabrication of 6061Al composites with different weight percentage of Al2O3 particles up to 0-9% was processed by liquid metallurgy route. For each composite, reinforcement particles were preheated to a temperature of 200°C and then dispersed in steps of three into the vortex of molten 6061Al alloy rather than introducing all at once, there by trying to improve wettability and distribution. Microstructural characterization was carried out for the above prepared composites by taking specimens from central portion of the casting. Microstructural characterization o.. Read More»
