Different types of properties (physical-density, mechanical-tensile, hardness, chemical-corrosion etc.) were measured and compared with base metals/alloys. The properties were significantly varied. The highest density was obtained for pure aluminium with 5% Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> whereas the lowest was obtained for AA-4032 alloy. The highest hardness was obtained for AA-4032 with 5% Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> whereas the lowest was obtained for pure Al with 5% Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>. The highest strength was obtained for AA-6061 with 5% coarse SiC whereas the lowest was obtained for pure Al. The highest impact strength was obtained for AA-4032 with 5% Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> whereas the lowest was obtained for AA-6061. The corrosion resistance of all composites was lower than that of the base materials.展开更多
