Abstract
This research examines the properties of metal matrix composites (MMCs) made from aluminium 6061 T6 with boron carbide and silicon carbide. Aluminium material is a matrix metal with appealing features such as lightweight in nature, high strength and machining with ease. Stir casting is less expensive, simple and used for mass production of MMCs. By adding B4C as (2%, 4%, 6% and 8%) and SiC as constant (5%) reinforcement, the samples are fabricated. The hardness in the material tends to extend by adding the proportion of reinforcement in the metal matrix. Increasing the content of B4C and SiC particles, the MMCs have superior wear resistance.
