“…Penggunaan partikel keramik menghasilkan sifat mekanik yang bagus, namun biaya produksinya mahal. Untuk menekan biaya produksi namun tetap mempertahankan sifat mekaniknya maka para peneliti telah mengembangkan penguat komposit yang tersedia di alam seperti abu dasar batubara [7], karet alam [8], bubuk cangkang telur [9], abu daun bambu [10], dan pasir pantai [11]. Pasir pantai dapat digunakan sebagai penguat pada AMC yang menggantikan partikel keramik karena kandungan mineral oksidanya seperti SiO2, Fe2O3, Al2O3, dan TiO2 [12].…”

Al6061-sea sand composite was manufactured using the stir casting method and its mechanical properties were improved by heat treatment. The T6 heat treatment used to improve the mechanical properties of the composite consists of the following processes: solution heat treatment, quenching, and artificial aging. The solution heat treatment process was carried out at a temperature of 540 o C for 6 hours. The quenching process was carried out with different quenching agents (water, oil, and 10% brine). The difference in quenching agents resulted in different cooling rates. After quenching, an artificial aging process was carried out at a temperature of 200 o C for 4 hours. The difference in cooling rate affects the hardness and tensile strength of the specimen. The high cooling rate results in an increase in the tensile strength of the specimen. This is due to the increase in cooling speed, the Mg 2 Si precipitates formed are smaller in size and located in the grains. The highest tensile strength of specimen (206.67 MPa) is obtained by using brine quenching agent.
