Production of aluminum alloy-based metal matrix composites using scrap aluminum alloy and waste materials: Influence on microstructure and mechanical properties

In the present study, aluminium metal matrix composites (AMCs) were successfully produced through stir-squeeze casting using a novel approach. The feasibility of using car scrap aluminium alloy wheels (SAAWs) as the matrix material and spent alumina catalyst (SAC) from oil refineries as reinforcemen...
