In this work, aluminum matrix composites fabricated using stir casting technique with addition of B4C as reinforcement (6% by weight basis) was employed for the production of castings. Chills extract heat and promote directional solidification. Here chills with different thermal conductivity were used i.e. made of copper, cast iron and mild steel. In the current work an attempt is made to study the mechanical and wear behavior of Al6061 alloy reinforced with B4C particulates. The effect of addition of B4C with different chill materials on mechanical properties such as microstructure, micro hardness, tensile strength and wear properties (under dry sliding condition) was assessed from base alloy and alloy with B4C addition. The result of the above investigation has been compared with base alloy and thorough analysis has been made. The results of the investigatio...
