摘要
Al6061 alloy with 80-to-90-micron sized B4C reinforced metal composites were synthesized using two steps stir cast process. The developed composites were characterized for microstructural characterization with SEM/EDS and XRD. Al6061 alloy with 9% wt. of B4C reinforced composites were shown uniform particles distribution in Al matrix. Furthermore, EDS and XRD patterns confirmed the availability of these reinforced particles in the metal composites. Hardness, tensile, compression, impact and fatigue tests were done to discover the effect of adding B4C to the base alloy on the mechanical properties of the composites. The first four strengths as above were discovered to be more with the addition of B4C particles. There was a slight decline in the fatigue life and elongation of Al6061-B4C composites when compared with the base alloy. © 2022. MechAero Foundation for Technical Research & Education Excellence.
