Abstract
The principal objective of the current investigation is to evaluate the effect of addition of reinforcement or dispersoid (Graphite and fly ash) in different weight percentage produced by stir-casting technique. In the field of engineering, metallurgists are looking for way to improve the mechanical properties of the materials. By doing so it is possible to improve the quality of the material which in turn gain the international market share. Therefore an investigation in the present research was made to fabricate and evaluate the Tensile and Compression strength, and hardness of Al matrix and Graphite and flyash particles as reinforcement in the matrix. Reinforcement being added ranges from 2 to 8 wt., % in step of 2%.
