Fabrication and Structural Analysis of Aluminium Alloy (Lm25) Reinforced with Silicon Carbide and Graphite Particulate

Abstract

Nowadays composite materials have become more popular for its wide range of applications and design flexibility, since the fuel costs are increasing day to day, most of the automobile industries are conducting various experiments to develop composites having less density and superior mechanical, tribological properties which are equally cost effective. In this case, we are using Silicon Carbide and Graphite. It is a compound of silicon and carbon with chemical formula SiC. Grains of silicon carbide can be bonded together by sintering to form very hard ceramics that are widely used in applications requiring high endurance, Graphite is well known for its self-lubrication and thermal stability.
