In this study, a powder mixture consisting of TiC (titanium carbide) and WC
(tungsten carbide) reinforced AlCuNiFeCr was produced using the hot pressing
technique. The AlCuNiFeCr powder mixture, TiC and WC were added at a rate of
5 %, 10 % and 15 %, respectively. In order to produce and control to produce
parameters have been produced having automation systems type of laboratory a
hot pressing machine. Graphite moulds were used in production and sintering
processes were carried out in a protective argon gas atmosphere. Composites
were produced at a sintering temperature of 900?C and under a pressure 35
MPa and for 4 minutes. To understand the microstructure and mechanical
properties of produced specimens, their SEM and EDS analysis, XRD analysis,
fracture surface SEM images, SEM mapping of elemental distribution and EDX
spectrums, hardness, three-point bending, and corrosion tests were
investigated. As a result, the best sample has been identified that belong
to AlCuNiFeCr-15 % WC with great features.
