Composite materials like Aluminium metal matrix composite is playing a very important role in manufacturing industries e.g. automobile and aerospace industries, due to their superior properties such as light weight, low density, high specific modulus, high fatigue strength etc., In this study Aluminium(Al 6061) is reinforced with Silicon Carbide particles and fabricated by Stir Casting Technique (vortex method). The MMC rectangular bars (samples) are prepared with Al6061 and SiC (28 µ size) as the reinforced particles by weight fraction from 0%, 5%, 10%, and 15% of SiC. The microstructure analysis and Mechanical properties like Tensile Strength, Vickers Hardness and Charpy Impact Strength were investigated on prepared specimens. It is observed that the properties are increased with increasing of reinforced specimens by weight fraction.

The paper presents the results of studies on the microstructure, chemical composition and mechanical properties of the Ni/SnAuCu/Ni interconnections obtained due to the conventional soldering at 300 °C for different times and subsequent aging at 150 °C. The EDX microanalysis allowed to detect at the Ni/solder interface the (Ni,Cu,Au)3Sn4phase which transformed to (Cu,Ni,Au)6Sn5after longer time of soldering. In the central part of the interconnection AuSn4brittle phase was present. This phase was responsible for the significant decrease of the shear strength in the joints subjected to aging at 150 °C for 1000h, 1500 hours. The fracture behavior of such joints appeared to be caused partly by the coalescence of the microvoids in the bulk solder, cleavage of η-phase grains and decohesion at the interface.

Mechanical properties of 7xxx series Al metal matrix composite (MMC) powders containing different amounts of ceramic were investigated. The ceramic contents of the starting powders were 5 wt.% or 10 wt.%. 7xxx Al blended powder was used for comparison. The powders were uniaxially cold compacted using a cylindrical die with a compacting pressure of 250 MPa and were sintered at 620oC in a dry N2 atmosphere for 60 min. The heating rate was varied up to 100oC/min. For the heat treatment, sintered parts were solution treated at 475oC and aged at 175oC. Compression tests were conducted to reveal the effect of Al2O3 particle content on the mechanical properties of the composites. Fractography was examined using a scanning electron microscope.
