Abstract

Copper has been widely in many applications such as heat exchangers due to mechanical and physical properties. In this work, the composite foam was fabricated by powder metallurgy method with fly ash powder and egg yolk as a foaming agent and reinforcement, respectively. Mechanical properties of the specimen were characterize using a compaction test. Moreover, observation of the specimen was conducted using the measurement of shrinkage and porosity. The strength of the specimen was obtained in the range 1:1,25 is 0,26 MPa through compaction test. Porosity measurement revealed that maximum and minimum porosities are 88.79 % and 71.53%, respectively. Optical Microscope and Scanning Electron Microscopy observation size of the pores ranging from 21,63μm to 169,7μm. Moreover, some crystalline phase was observed using X-Ray Diffraction Test.

Abstract

Metal matrix composite has been used widely in some applications such as the automotive and aerospace industries. In this work, Aluminum/Fly ash composite material was made with an egg yolk space holder and the manufacturing process was successfully carried out. The process includes the mixing, stirring, drying, and sintering processes that were undertaken including the powder metallurgy method. The metal form has successfully been fabricated however the hardness test results for specimens were not very satisfactory. The Aluminum/Fly ash porous composite materials with egg yolk space holders were was characterized using X-Ray Florence (XRF), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) test by producing the main peak of Al N and Al2O3. Observation of SEM by showing phenomena such as; cracks, alignment, and porous. Density Testing by producing an average porosity of 28.87%. The observation of Optical Microscopes by showing the shape of the shaft that is not homogeneous.
