| Description |
Abstract Micron‐sized graphite particles additions to Al2011 alloy were investigated to know their impact on mechanical properties. The stir cast method was used to manufacture the Al2011 alloy with 2 and 4 wt% of graphite particles reinforced composites. The microstructural analysis and mechanical properties of the synthesized composites were tested. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) spectrums were used to characterize the microstructure of the samples that were obtained from the casting. SEM micrographs indicated the homogeneous distribution of particles and the EDS patterns confirmed the presence of graphite particles. Al2011 alloy hardness was decreased with the addition of graphite particles. Further, with the addition of 2 and 4 wt% of graphite particles in the Al2011 alloy, the ultimate tensile and yield strengths of composites were increased with increase in elongation. SEM micrographs of tensile fractured surfaces were used to study the various fractured behaviors in the Al2011 alloy‐graphite composites.
