Abstract:

The present work aims to fabricate aluminium metal matrix composites through liquid powder metallurgy route. The aluminium matrix composite contains TiO2 reinforcement particle was produced to study the mechanical properties such as tensile strength and hardness. The characterization studies also carried out to evident the phase presence in the composite and the results are discussed for the reinforcement addition with the mechanical properties. Results show that, the addition of 5 weight percentage of TiO2 to the pure aluminium improves the mechanical properties.
