Abstract
This study proposed the methodology to produce silicon carbide particulate MMCs based on aluminum to create typical low-cost MMCs and achieve a homogeneous scattering of ceramic material. The trial was done with a different weight fraction of Silicon Carbide (2%, 3%) and Tungsten Carbide (2%, 3%) with all other parameters being maintained. A growing hardness was noticed with the rise in SiC & WC weight 2 to 3%. The advantages of this technique include improved mechanical characteristics, minimal residual stress and deformation, and fewer flaws. Although casting technique poses numerous technical obstacles, this problem can nevertheless be addressed. Aluminum materials with high strength to weight and low density have been proven to be the best option. As lightweight materials are developed, weight reduction has been offered several alternatives through conducting different tests to analyze different features such as mechanical and metallurgical characteristics.
