FABRICATION OF ALUMINIUM COMPOSITE AA 354.0 (Al-Si-Cu) WITH Al2O3 PARTICLE REINFORCE USING STIR CASTING METHOD

Improved mechanical properties of Aluminium Metal Matrix Composites (AMC) and their relatively reduced cost have made them attractive for wide range applications, such as automotive, aerospace, and electronics industries. In this work, metal matrix composite was fabricated from AA.354.0 (Al-Cu-Si) a...
