Özet:

Aluminum has been rapidly replacing other materials in many engineering applications since the end of the nineteenth century, when it became available as a field of application. The areas of application vary according to the demands. As the demand for materials with improved properties increases, research is focusing on new hybrid materials. In this study, hybrid composite materials were produced with aluminum matrix material reinforced with mixed reinforcements such as SiC, Al2O3 and Gr by vortex method. The mechanical and physical properties of the aluminum matrix hybrid composite samples were investigated. As a result of the examinations, it was concluded that the reinforcing elements in hybrid composites can be sufficiently wetted by the matrix material, and the interfacial bonding is successful. Microstructure photographs revealed that the reinforcement powders were homogeneously dispersed in the matrix. With increasing reinforcement ratios, the hardness, bending and compression strengths of hybrid composite materials increased. In addition, the increase in the reinforcing weight fraction increased the experimental and theoretical densities of the samples and the porosity rates within the structure.
