Aluminum MMCs are preferred to other conventional materials in the fields of aerospace, automotive and marine applications owing to their improved properties like high strength to weight ratio, good wear resistance etc. In the present work, an attempt has been made to synthesize metal matrix composite using Al6061 as matrix material reinforced with ceramic Fe3O4 particulates using liquid metallurgy route in particular stir casting technique. Aluminum matrix composites reinforced with Iron oxide particles gives superior mechanical properties. And are used in several demanding fields like automobile, aerospace, defense, sports, electronics, biomedical and other industrial purposes. Various manufacturing processes e.g. stir casting, ultra-sonic assisted casting, compo-casting, powder metallurgy, liquid infiltration are being utilized for the production of the aluminum matrix composites. These composite materials possess improved physical and mechanical properties.
