Abstract

In this research, a novel aluminum alloy and metal matrix composite was designed and developed for self healing purpose. Tin at varying weight percentages (5, 10, 15 & 20 wt %) was alloyed into aluminum along with other alloying elements to form a new set of metal alloy and 5 wt% of SiC particle...
