Abstract: The function of engineering materials in the development of contemporary technology like steel Matrix Composites (MMCs) have evoked a keen hobby these days for capacity packages in aerospace and automobile industries as a result of their superior power to weight ratio and excessive temperature resistance. Aluminium (6061) and silicon Carbide (Powder) has been selected as matrix and reinforcement cloth respectively. On this gift look at an attempt is made to broaden Aluminium primarily based silicon carbide particulate MMCs. Stir casting is one of the maximum cost powerful technique of processing MMC and to gain homogenous dispersion of ceramic material. Al–SiC composites containing special weight chance three. Five %, 7.Zero% and 10.5% of B4C have been fabricated via way of stir casting technique. Experiments are conducted with the aid of numerous weight fraction of SiC (3.5%, 7.Zero% and 10.Five%), on the equal time as preserving all different parameters normal. The distribution of reinforcement and percent of composition are examined thru Optical Emission Spectrometer (OES). The compositions in their micro structural features were determined via Metallurgical Microscope.

Keywords: Silicon Carbide, Stir Casting, Aluminium and Metal Matrix Composite.
