Abstract
Aluminum MMC’s are preferred in aerospace, automotive and marine application due to their improved properties like high strength to weight ratio, high temperature property, good wear resistance etc. In this paper an attempt has been made to synthesize MMC’s using Al7075 as matrix material reinforced with ceramic SiC of particle size of 125μm by stir casting technique. Reinforcement particles were preheated to a temperature of 1100oC and then dispersed in steps of three into the vortex of molten Al7075 alloy to improve wettability and distribution. The Al7075/SiC MMC’S has been subjected to heat treatments to study the influence of artificially ageing at 150, 175, 200oC for 6, 10, 12, 15 h on microstructure, grain boundary formation, precipitates and hardness. Microstructural characterization for the heat treated condition was carried out paying special emphasis to the distribution of SiC particle in Al matrix and interface bonding between them.
