In this research, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of the Al-TiC composites which were sintered via microwave-assisted process were investigated. The specimens were sintered for 3, 5 and 8 minutes. The results have shown that the sample which contains 4 vol. % TiC and was sintered for 8 minutes, has the highest electrical and thermal conductivities among the other obtained ones. Besides that, the sample which contains 8 vol. % TiC and was sintered for 3 minutes, has dedicated the highest hardness and density to itself. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs have illustrated that by increasing the amount of TiC up to 12 vol. %, the agglomeration of particles occurs. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) investigations have shown that due to the short duration of the sintering process in the microwave method, there is no trace of TiO 2 and Al 4 C 3 as pernicious phases. According to the obtained results, it becomes clear that increasing the amount of TiC powder leads to the reduction of electrical and thermal properties of the samples and increasing the sintering duration, leads to the increase of the mentioned properties.

Metal matrix composites is a new expansion to cutting-edge materials having astounding properties like a weightless, high explicit quality and great consumption obstruction properties. These types of materials are highly desirable industries. Automobile and aerospace industries require materials that have good strength to weight ratio in order to achieve higher fuel efficiency. It is difficult to machine these types of new generation metal matrix composites with conventional machining techniques. For machining these types of composites now a day’s unconventional machining techniques like electrical discharge machining are used. This paper presents review of research work carried out by researchers in EDM on composites. This paper also considers the attribute trends of EDM machining.

The present work is to investigate the thermal, electrical & dry sliding wear behaviour of aaluminium matrix composite reinforced with dissimilar particle size (≤ 200 nm and 2 µm) of titanium carbide particles. An aluminium matrix composite with 0, 5, 10 and 15 vol.%TiC reinforcement was prepared by using powder metallurgy. A pin-on-disc apparatus was broadly used to investigate the wear behavior of the Al/TiCnano composites. Wear test was carried out for normal load of 5 N,10 N, 15 N& 20N at constant sliding velocity of 2.61 m/s at room temperature. The variations of the coefficient of friction (COF) & specific wear rate (SWR) with the varying sliding distances (1000 m, 1200 m, 1400 m and 1600 m) for variable load were plotted and analyzed. Find out the thermal property of Al-TiC composite by using Thermogravimetry (TG) / Differential scanning calorometry (DSC). To study the dominant sliding, wear mechanism was analyzed for various test condition, while the worn surface was investigated by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the respective polynomial & power law model was developed using curve fitting technique. Further, it was found that the SWR is to increase with the load & sliding distances. Hardness & electrical conductivity of composites have been varied based on particle size variation of TiC.
