Description
Summary:The objective of this project is to the study the mechanical characteristic alteration, to investigate on corrosion rate and to carry out observation on the microstructure due to the different filJer loading of reinforcement. The composition of reinforcement material which is cooper will be added to Aluminum 390. It wiJl be in the verification into 0, 2, 5 and 8wt0/o. In addition, preparation of this sample is complete through casting process tag along with parameter of addition material specification as it's confirmed. Next, the cutting process is performing by following the standard size for remaining tests which is confinned. Then, the metal block will going through with heat treatment process namely solution heat treatment and artificial ageing. Whilst the sample is produced, hardness test (ASTM El8-03), corrosion test (ASTM G61) and microstructure observation is perform. Based on the acquired data, the comparison will be performs between Aluminum 390 data and sample MMC data which is produced. The achieve result, for hardness test the value of HRB is increase together with expansion of copper and corrosion rate become higher with increases of copper percentage. If referred on theory, the achieve properties on this experiment has successfuJly fuJfill objective of the project because theory authentication with experiment is parallel.
