Abstract
Present technology demanded high strength lightweight material which offers good mechanical property and light in weight. Metal matrix composite is one popular type of such material. In this research authors, aluminum is reinforced to increase its properties like hardness, strength, elastic stiffness to suits the needs to design. Aluminum of grade LM13, which is light material reinforced with boron carbide to improves mechanical properties like strength hardness and elastic properties. In this paper author experimentally evaluate the mechanical properties of Aluminium LM13. The weight percentage of boron carbide by varying with a range of 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%. An improved property of MMC makes them useful in different areas like aerospace and automotive industries. The microstructure of developed material has been reported in this paper.
Highlights
In present, composite materials have effectively swapped the old-style materials in several light weight and high strength and stiffness applications
Universal testing machine used to measure the tensile strength of sample material
The above table shows the variation of ultimate tensile strength with increased percentage of Boron carbide
Summary
Composite materials have effectively swapped the old-style materials in several light weight and high strength and stiffness applications. Sagar et al [1]; Kumar et al [2]; Janamatti and Rao [3] Composites having high strength, good toughness, better creep resistance and extremely hard to wear materials are useful in many industrious areas like automobile industries , aerospace industries and tools industries and so on. Hassan et al [14]; Rao et al [15] Strength is main standards and it must be lightweight because in aircraft and automobile industry the material with high strength and low weight is required. A days metal based composite play the role of back bone in numbers of area like material advancement, solar energy conversion, medical field, and many others
