Material used and specifications
ALUMINIUM 7075:-
It is high grade type of aluminium of 7 series
7075 aluminium alloy is an aluminium alloy , with zinc as the
primary alloying element
7075 aluminium alloy's composition roughly includes
1) 5.6–6.1% zinc,
2) 2.1–2.5% magnesium,
3) 1.2–1.6% copper,
4) And less than a half percent of silicon, iron, manganese,
titanium, chromium, and other metals.

Why aluminium 7075 ?
It is strong, with a strength comparable to many steels.
It has good fatigue strength and average machinibility .
It has lower resistance to corrosion than many other aluminium
alloys.
It has maximum tensile strength of 280 Mpa, and maximum yield
strength 140 Mpa.
The material has an elongation of 9–10%.
7075 aluminum alloy is highly corrosion-resistant combined with
generally acceptable strength profile.
Due to their high strength-to-density ratio 7000 series alloys such as
7075 are often used in transport applications, including marine,
automative and aviation.

TITANIUM CARBIDE:-
Titanium carbide, Tic , is an
extremely hard refractory ceramic material, similar to tungsten
carbide.
It has the appearance of black powder with the sodium
chloride crystal structure.
As found in nature its crystals range in size from 0.1 to 0.3mm

STIRCASTING OF MMC
• Stir Casting is a liquid state method of composite
materials fabrication, in which a dispersed phase
(ceramic particles) is mixed with a molten matrix metal
by means of mechanical stirring.
• Stir Casting is the simplest and the most cost
effective method of liquid state fabrication.
• Three combinations of reinforcement (5%, 7%, 9%, of
TiC) are fabricated with aluminium 7075 metal
matrix.
