Abstract

The objective of the present study is to analyze the effect of Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) on the mechanical properties of Al4032–SiO2 composite. These composites have been prepared by stir casting route in which the weight % SiO2 nano particles are 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1wt%.The ECAP process is done at a room temperature using a die with channel angle of 105o and corner angle 300. The influence of ECAP on mechanical properties of Al4032 –SiO2 composite is evaluated. In general in any composite the distribution of reinforcement particles can be observed with the micro-structural examination, but the effect of ECAP will be there on the mechanical properties of composite, so that here we have taken the evolution of Al4032-SiO2 mechanical properties before and after ECAP process. As the agenda of ECAP is to improve the mechanical properties we have observed the great improvement in the mechanical properties.
