Composites place a vital role in applications of material science I,e aerospace, automobile, marine, etc... Dual reinforcement composites are a trending research area in the field of metal matrix composites. In this research article dual reinforcement i.e zirconium silicate and carbon are added to molten LM13 using the stir casting process in terms of (3+3), (6+3), (9+3) and (12+3) wt.% respectively using copper as a chill kept toward one end. Tensile, hardness, and microstructural studies are done on the composite specimen at the chill end and non-chill. It is found an increase in reinforcement and chilling effect increases the properties of the composite.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
