Abstract
Abstract Aluminium based composites are extensively used in various applications because of its excellent properties. Aluminium alloy (AA7075) matrix reinforced with Molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) and Aluminium Nitride (AlN) have been developed via stir casting (SC) method. The mechanical properties such as hardness, tensile strength (TS) and compressive strength (CS) have been studied and reported. The increase in amount of AlN in the matrix improved the properties and decreased the elongation. The porosity % is high for the increase in quantity of the reinforcement particles.
