Effect of multiple-particle size reinforced silicon carbide(SICP) on properties of aluminium matrix composite by Adebisi, Adetayo A., Maleque, Md. Abdul

“…The result shows that aluminium matrix composite with multiple-particle size SiC exhibit better properties including wear resistance than single or double particle size SiC reinforcement as a result of proper shielding effect of base metal and the fine particles by the coarse particles. This study could be use to optimise the wear rate of structural applications developed with multiple-particle size aluminium matrix composite.…”
