“…Aluminum alloy matrix composites (AMCs) are widely used in engineering applications due to high specific strength, high corrosion resistance, ease of fabrication and low cost [1][2][3]. Stir casting is also attractive because of simplicity, flexibility and is most economical for large size components to be fabricated [4]. AMCs with ceramic particles reinforcement are suitable candidate for material used in tribological applications.…”

The tribological behaviour of samples of LM13 alloy matrix reinforced with 15 wt. % Zircon sand also 15wt.% and Zirfloor particles in low and high range of loads (1kg and 5kg) was determined using a pin-on-disc wear and friction monitor at a constant velocity of 1.6 m/s. Zircon sand and Zirfloor sand (particles size 5-32ȝm) are reinforced in the LM13 alloy by stir casting method. Optical microscopy show uniform distribution of particles and reveal better bonding in the case of zircon particles reinforced composite compared to that in zirfloor particles reinforced composite. It is observed that the zircon particle reinforced composite shows relatively better wear resistance property compared to zirfloor-reinforced composite.

“…[12][13][14][15][16] Apart from these properties, Zr sand particles also possess a very low thermal expansion coefficient in comparison to most of the other ceramic oxides, which are favorable to resist high thermal stresses within Zr particles. In view of the utilization of dual reinforcement particles of SiC and Zr sand, Sharma et al 17 stated that it gives enhanced wear properties as compared to single particle reinforcement, if mixed in a definite proportion.…”

This article presents the results of a study on the corrosion characteristics of the single and dual particle reinforced aluminum alloy 6063 based composites. The reinforcements of silicon carbide and zircon sand were utilized to fabricate the composites by stir casting technique. The influence of reinforcement and their weight percentage on the hardness variations was investigated. The electrochemical tests in sodium chloride solution were conducted to study the corrosion performance of reinforced composites and base alloy. From the corrosion analysis, it was observed that the single particle reinforcement offered better solution on enhancing the corrosion resistance of base aluminum alloy in comparison with dual particle reinforced composites. In the single particle reinforced composites, addition of zircon sand exhibited increased corrosion resistance, when compared to silicon carbide reinforced composites. The governing mechanism behind increased corrosion resistance was found to be the absence of galvanic coupling between the elemental compounds and the corrosive media at particle–matrix interface. The scanning electron microscopy of composites was performed to analyze corrosion mechanism and correlated well with the corrosion behavior.

Especially carbon Nano tubes (CNT) can improve the matrix material in terms of wear resistance, damping properties and mechanical strength. The present investigation deals with the synthesis and characterization of aluminium matrix reinforced with micro B4C particles, and Multi Wall Carbon nano Tubes (MWCNT) which have been prepared by powder metallurgy route. Powder mixture containing fixed weight (%) of B4C and different wt% of MWCNT as Downloaded by [UNSW Library] at 11:05 12 August 2015 2 reinforcement constituents that are uniaxial cold pressed and later green compacts are sintered in continues electric furnace. Microstructure and Mechanical properties such as micro hardness and density are examined. Micro structure of samples has been investigated using scanning electron microscope(SEM). X-ray Diffraction(XRD),Energy dispersive X-ray(EDAX), Atomic Force Microscope(AFM) and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). TEM microstructure of the nano composite shows the homogeneous dispersion of MWCNT in the Aluminium matrix. The results indicated that the increase in wt % of MWCNT improves the bonding and mechanical properties.
