Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of volume fraction (10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%) of composite banana stem fiber with polyester matrix on tensile strength and impact strength. From the results of the study obtained an average strength value the most optimal tensile is found in the 10% fiber volume fraction and 90% matrix that is 51.863 N/mm2 and strain value 5.754 N/mm2. As for the lowest tensile strength at 20% fiber volume fraction and 80% matrix that is 36.356 N/mm2 and strain value 7.796%. The composite which has the highest average energy and impact value is the 50% volume fraction matrix 50% has an absorption rate with an average absorbed energy value of 0.8093 Joules and an average Impact Price of 0.0101 Joules / mm2, while the lowest in the volume fraction of 20%, 80% matrix with an average energy value of 0.4129 Joules and an average Impact Price of 0.0052 Joules/mm2. It can be concluded that the addition of fiber volume fraction affects the tensile strength and impact strength.

Abstract

Aluminum is a widely used and applied material in daily life or in the industrial and automotive world. In order to improve the performance and properties of the application to be used, it needed an alloying element to improve the mechanical properties of the aluminum. Aluminum Matrix Composite (AMC) or better known as aluminum matrix composite is one type of material that has great potential to be developed, due to its good combination and properties such as high strength and hardness, low density, low density, capable of good machining, and its basic ingredients are easily found on the market and cheaper than other materials. This research was conducted using the stir casting process to be able to mix all the compositions contained in aluminum matrix composites and to help the distribution of alumina reinforcing particles (Al2O3) and aluminum matrices be evenly distributed. The parameters used in this casting process are varying the volume fraction of the Al2O3 amplifier by 0.5%; 1.5% and 2.5% plus the magnesium content remains 0.9%. The results showed that the addition of Al2O3 can increase the value of hardness and reduce the value of tensile strength. The highest hardness value was 75.3 HRB at the addition of Al2O3 by 2.5% and the lowest tensile strength value was 7.17 Kgf / mm2 with the percentage of Al2O3 addition of 0.5%.

Abstract

Aluminum is a material that has the ability as a material that is widely used because of its light weight, good corrosion resistance, good appearance, reliable electrical conductor, good electricity conductor, and several other advantages of this material. The development of aluminum (Al) material in the form of aluminum matrix composite (AMC) is often applied in various fields including automotive, industry, military, and aviation. The reinforcing particle that is often used in AMC is silicon sarbide (SiC) to improve the properties of AMC. The addition of magnesium (Mg) is useful as a wetting agent for reinforcing particles and matrices. This study aims to determine the effect of adding magnesium (Mg) on the mechanical properties and microstructure of the aluminum matrix composite 1100 series reinforced with silicon carbide (SiC) using the stir casting method. The reinforcing silicon carbide (SiC) particles were added to the aluminum matrix composite (Al) by 5%. The variations in the addition of magnesium were 0.75%, 1.25%, and 1.75% as wetting agents. To find out the mechanical properties, this research was carried out by testing the tensile strength and hardness. The hardness test results showed the highest hardness in the magnesium (Mg) 1.75% variation of 84.67 HRB and the highest tensile strength in the pure aluminum (Al) variation of 9.41 Kgf/mm2.
