Abstract

Aluminum alloy is widely used in automotive, aerospace and other engineering industries because of its excellent mechanical properties. The main objective is to enhance 6061 Al alloy’s mechanical properties by producing 6061-B4C composite through squeeze casting process. Experimentation was carried out with different micron sizes and weight fraction of B4C particles. The mechanical properties of reinforced metal matrix were experimentally investigated in terms of Ultimate Tensile Strength and Hardness. We observe that these two properties are improved by the reinforcement of B4C particles and applied squeeze pressure.
