Fabrication and Charecterisation of Aluminum-Graphite Composite Material
Journal Title: International Journal of Mechanical and Production Engineering Research and Development (IJMPERD ) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 4
Abstract
Matel matix composites have better properties and performance, compared to the pure metals that justifies their added cost. The present work includes fabrication of metal matrix composite having Aluminium as a base metal and Graphite as the reinforcement. The mechanical testing of the fabricated composite is performed and the mechanical properties are compared with the properties of pure Aluminum. Structural material characterization of the fabricated composite was also performed by X-ray diffraction. Mechanical properties of the fabricated composite were fornd superior to the pure metal.
