Abstract
Inmodern times it is seen that the use of aluminum alloys has increased greatly in automobile, aerospace, marine, and various other fields. This is due to the fact that aluminum alloys have superior advantages when it comes to corrosion resistance, strength to weight ratio characteristics, and high machinability when it is compared with steel. In this paper a study on the mechanical, tribological properties and microstructure of aluminum alloy with variations in Nickel (Ni) and Iron (Fe). Previous studies that have been conducted in this field have dealt with aluminum additives of different compositions with the study of only mechanical properties or microstructure. Our project deals with the study in the changes of properties and microstructure analysis of Iron(Fe) and Nickel(Ni), aluminum-based alloy added to which the tribological studies and the correlation is studied with the variations in the metal concentration, Thus the study and development of these alloys are important as it paves the way for the new generation of mechanical components with superior properties. Also, our paper deals with the fabrication of a brake disc rotor with the most suitable alloy among the three. The tensile strength, hardness, and surface characteristics of all the profiles were studied in detail and presented. The 7% of Iron powder in the profile has the highest tensile strength.
