Effect of Hexagonal Boron Nitrate on Microstructure and Mechanical Behavior of Al7075 Metal Matrix Composite Producing by Stir Casting Technique

Al7075 alloy reinforced with h-Boron Nitrate (BN) composites were processed by stir casting technique. The produced composite was subjected to microstructural studies using OLYMPUS -BX51M, tensile, hardness, density and wear tests. Tensile strength and hardness were found to increase by 12.8% and 20% respectively due to increased dislocation density with the addition of reinforcement. Microstru...

Experimental Investigations on Microstructural and Mechanical Behavior of Friction Stir Welded Aluminum Matrix Composite

The welding of materials by applying Friction Stir Welding technique is a new solid-state joining technique. The main advantage of this method compared to the traditional joining process is that it minimizes problem-related to metal resolidification as the method incorporates no melting phase. In this experimental work, the effect of friction stir welding (FSW) technique on the microstructu...

a study on the effect of al2o3 nano-particles on aging behavior and mechanical properties of al-4.5wt.%cu/al2o3 composites produced by stir casting

using the nanotechnology and decreasing the dimension of reinforcement particles to nanometer, outstanding mechanical properties are achieved in aluminum matrix nanocomposites. fabrication of aluminum matrix nanocomposites by casting is of great importance because of its simplicity, low cost and ease of the control of matrix microstructure. in this study, the aging behavior of nanocomposite sam...

Optimization of Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Al-A360 Produced by Semi-Solid Casting

Semi-Solid Casting (SSM) is a new process that could produce globular structures with mechanical properties. The cooling slope method (CLM) is a one of this process that was employed to produce the A360 feedstock. In this method, The dendritic primary phase in the conventionally cast A356 alloy has transformed into a non-dendritic one. In this paper, The molten alloy with the temperature (PT) o...
