Abstract
The reinforced Metal Matrix Composite (MMC) was broadly used in various engineering applications. The light weight and high strength metal matrix components were used in aerospace and automotive applications. The silicon carbide, boron carbide, aluminum oxide and carbon fiber were used as common reinforcement materials. The magnesium and its alloys were recently has a maximum role in MMC due to its high strength and light weight. In addition to the magnesium, the aluminium and copper was included through the reinforcement of boron carbide (B4C). It was formulated through squeeze casting technique. The copper has good electrical conductivity and it has more corrosion resistance. The magnesium metal matrix was fabricated through squeeze casting technique. The Vickers hardness was determined through the different input squeeze casting factors such as pressure, pouring temperature and die temperature. The Response Surface Methodology (RSM) optimization was used to analyze the parametric effects.
