Effect of variable particle size reinforcement on mechanical and wear properties of 6061Al–SiCp composite

The influence of reinforcement particle size variation plays a major role on the properties of Al–SiCp composite. Therefore, this study aim to investigate the mechanical and wear performance of single particle size (SPS) and multiple particle size (MPS) Al–SiCp composite prepared by stir casting pr...
