In the present article, cashew nut biocarbon (CTB), an agricultural waste, is used as reinforcement in Al6061 by heating process. The primary XRD study on CTB confirms presence of SiO2, Al2O3, iron-rich ferro-axinite, MgO, and Mn, which improve material’s properties when reinforcement. SiO2 levels increase with annealing time. extracted crushed into a ball mill for 24 hours, particle size measu...

The joined influence of fortifying metal matrix composites with separate and numerous particle reinforcing agents like hybrid are utilized greatly in the manufacturing industry. This is attributed to enriched mechanical wears characteristics such as strength, impact wear resistance. In present study, a series research undertakings were carried out. paper directs technologists scientists towards...

MetPreg, a composite developed by Touchstone Research Laboratories (Tridelphia, WV), is an aluminum metal matrix composite reinforced by continuous Nextel 610 alumina fibers. The question is, after processing, are the Nextel fibers affected in any way that their strengthening contribution to the composite is reduced? From experimentation and statistical analysis, a strength distribution of pre-...

A novel lamination that consists of aluminum heat spreader plates interspersed with a polymer-based thermal energy storage composite is described. The composite consists of a thermoplastic matrix that encapsulates paraffin such that it is immobilized when in the liquid phase. As a consequence, the thermal energy storage/release process is independent of g-loading or orientation. Composites with...
