CHARACTERIZATION AND MICROSTRUCTURE STUDY OF AL5083/FLY ASH/SILICON CARBIDE PARTICULATE COMPOSITES FABRICATED BY STIR CASTING METHODOLOGY

AL5083 alloy having a decent corrosion resistance, light –weight with high strength and weld ability which reinforced with particulate of fly- ash/ silicon carbide (sic) and fabricated using stir casting technique. One of the major wastage of industrial item in thermal plant is flyash as first strengthening material addition with second reinforcement material(silicon carbide) which gives good bonding. fabrication of Al5083-Sic-Flyash composite samples are ready using stir casting method. The different specimens are attained for Al5083, Al5083-2 wt% Sic, Al5083-4 wt% sic,Al5083-6 wt% of Sic and each samples 2% weight of fly ash content was kept as constant all over. after preparing of particle samplings conducte mechanical characterize testing such Hardness Test, Impact test, wear test and Tensile Test on corresponding apparatus and also Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM) analysis was inspected. Finally the results of each experiment were discussed which indicates particles % of both sic, flyash improved properties of hybrid composites.
