“…Powder metallurgy (PM), in the manufacture of alloys has provided enormous potential when it comes to automotive parts or components, mainly for parts subjected to motion and friction. Route through the MP, may be produced metal matrix composites reinforced with ceramic particles, more specifically by particles of silicon carbide (SiCp) or carbon nanotubes, have been produced by various manufacturing methods [6,7,8].…”

In this works, aluminum scraps powders were mixed with commercial graphite and mechanically alloyed in a high-energy ball mill and subsequently powders sintering. The initial grinding of aluminum scraps for 2 hours and then mixed with commercial graphite powder at a proportion of (y)Al-(x)C (wt%) (x = 1, 5 e 10, 25). The mixture of aluminum and graphite powders was processed for a time at 5 hours of milling. The samples were sintered at a temperature of 750°C and 1000°C. Samples were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The results of this study were to find important parameters of composition and sintering, because the increase in concentration of carbon in the aluminum indicates that the material may have different applications.
