Abstract
Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs) are most capable in accomplishing improved mechanical properties and wear properties due to the presence of reinforced particles. Aluminium is used in various applications because of its light weight and corrosion resistant. In the present work, Al7005 matrix alloy is reinforced with different Weight % of S-Glass and Fly-ash were prepared through stir casting technique and hot extruded at a ratio of 5.32:1. The extruded Al 7005 hybrid MMCs were later subjected to tensile test and compared with casted composites. The properties of extruded hybrid MMCs were found to be better than the hybrid MMCs. It is observed that Yield strength (YS) of extruded Al 7005 +5% S-Glass+6% Fly ash hybrid MMCs improved by 7.43% and Ultimate tensile strength (UTS)of extruded Al 7005 +5% S-Glass+6% Fly-ash hybrid MMCs improved by 7.43%, While percentage of elongation is reduced to 14% than casted composites.
