Abstract |
Recent researching in a material science has been directly towards the inversion if new engineering materials. The new engineering materials having high strength to weight ratio, high stiffness, good thermal conductivity, good creep, fatigue and wear resistance. It is a most required in the all industry. In this paper the various mechanical properties was evaluated by conducting Hardness test and tensile test. Material used for this work was Al6061 Reinforced with Sic (2.5%, 5%, 7.5%) & B4C (2.5%). The maximum tensile strength and hardness has been obtained at SiC (7.5%) and B4c (2.5%) ratio. Mechanical and Corrosion behavior of Al6061/Sic/B4C alloys are also studied. |
