Abstract

New developments in material technology aids in the investigations, reinforcements of new materials which replaces existing materials for various applications. Among those, composite materials play an important role which is a combination of two or more materials with different physical and chemical properties. This research focused on developing an aluminium metal matrix composite (AMMC) material made by wrought aluminium alloy with various weight fractions of aluminium oxide to make five different forms of composites. In this research stir casting process was used. The reinforced composites were tested for their tensile and impact strength properties. The results show that composite with a higher percentage of aluminium oxide has high tensile and impact strength properties than other composites.
