Abstract

Metal matrix composite made from 6061 aluminum alloy matrix reinforced with titanium carbide particles was fabricated by stir casting. Titanium carbide particles were incorporated with varying proportions of 2, 4 and 6 percent weight fractions. Stirring was done to achieve uniform distribution of reinforcement and castings were made by pouring the mixture into graphite moulds. The composite was then studied with respect to its mechanical properties and microstructure. Tensile, compressive, impact and hardness specimens were machined to establish the mechanical properties of the composite. Comparative study for all the said composites is done with respect to yield strength, tensile strength, hardness, impact strength and compressive strength.

Keywords: Metal matrix composite; Weight fraction; Stir casting
