Use of Aluminum composites is increased in the defense and aerospace industries. Al–Li based composite have gained increasing importance in the recent years due to their low density coupled with high strength and stiffness. The objective of this work is manufacturing of aluminum (8090) based composite reinforced with SiC. A stir casting technique is used to produce new class of composite. This composite have light weight with superior mechanical properties. In this study we are estimating various mechanical properties like tensile strength, impact strength, hardness and compressive strength with increase in weight percentage of SiC.

Al-Li composites, Stir casting, tensile strength, impact strength, hardness and compressive strength.
