Abstract
Composite materials assume a significant part in auto, aviation, marine, and defense applications due to its unique properties. Aluminum alloys have certain advantages over other alloys. In this paper, the composite material comprised of Aluminum Alloy LM6 and fly ash (150 – 175 μm) has been picked as lattice and supporting materials individually. Magnesium is added to lessen the surface pressure and evade the dismissal of the particles from the melts. Liquid state processing through stir casting procedure was adopted for fabrication of mmc into necessary shape and size according to the ASTM principles by energetically mixing at consistent speed and time. The fly ash with various syntheses (2%, 4%, 6%) were added with LM6 combination. XRD and EDAX were used to examine the structural analysis of MMC, and optical microscopy and SEM were used to investigate the microstructure on MMC. Wear test was also carried out on MMC to ascertain the wear rate and cof of different MMCs. There is substantial improvement of mechanical properties like tensile strength, micro hardness, and density of the composite.
