“…The trends in the rate of increase in tensile strength, hardness and the rate of decrease in density was similar in the case of AlSi10Mg alloy reinforced with up to 12% RHA particles and this study showed that the rate of increasing the tensile strength dropped when the percentage of reinforcement was increased to around 9% and then the tensile strength began to reduce with further increasing the amount of reinforcement [15], a similar tendency to which is observed in the current work as well.…”

Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs) constitute an important category of design and weightefficient materials. This article highlights on the work where an attempt is taken to fabricate aluminium matrix composite reinforced with rice husk ash (RHA) particles, an agricultural byproduct with high amount of silica. RHA particles, upon analysis, are incorporated into the Al matrix melt by stir casting. Magnesium (~1%) is used as a wetting agent between matrix and reinforcement. 3, 6 and 9% wt. of RHA are added into the matrix. The microstructure analysis reveals the reinforcing particle distribution inside the matrix which indicates successful fabrication of the composites. The density and mechanical properties such as strength and hardness are measured for both unreinforced metal and composites. The results found in the tests show a decrease in density with increasing reinforcement while increasing yield strength, ultimate strength and hardness of the composites with increasing reinforcement from the unreinforced condition.

The aim of this work is to fabricate hybrid composites by using Rice husk ash (RHA), an agro waste as reinforcement to AL-20MG-10CU high strength alloy. Rice husk ash particles of 3, 6, 9 & 12 % by weight were used, to develop metal matrix composites, using a liquid metallurgy route. The microscopic structural studies have been carried out using scanning electron microscope, to analyze the distribution of RHA particles. The usage of any metal matrix composites always depends upon the strong wettability of reinforcement particles in a matrix. For the strong wettability, uniform distribution of particles and good disposability stir casting method is considered, for the development of composites. The physical and mechanical behavior of the material was determined through density, hardness, tensile strength, impact energy calculations. The results revealed that, abundant rice husk can be used in the production of metal matrix composites for engineering applications.
