Abstract:
Aluminium based composites offer high strength, stiffness and resistance to wear. The combination of properties produced on the surface makes hybrid composites attractive to a wide range of applications in Automotive and Aerospace industries. In this present study, Aluminium A356 Matrix Material is reinforced with different weight percentage (1wt%,2%wt,3%wt,4%wt) of Rice Husk Ash (RHA) and Titanium dioxide (Tio2) by stir casting technique. The hybrid composite was then tested for tensile strength and compression strength in Universal Testing Machine (UTM) in two cases of with heat treatment and without heat treatment. The test result showcases the improvement of the tensile and compressive strength of the hybrid composite material.
