Wear study of Aluminium Metal Matrix Composite made by powder metallurgy

In this study aluminum fly ash, Bagasse ash, and Alumina particles were utilized for the fabrication of Alalloy – based metal matrix composite by means of powder metallurgy. After compacting and sintering Al powder containing 5 10and 15 wt% and particles. Make the wear test specimen and wear test carried on pin on disc machine to keep all parameter constant and compare the wear rate with pure aluminum. It observed that the wear rate increase with increasing the reinforcement in the base metal up to15 wt. %.
