Description
Summary:This report provides the reader about the experimental study done by the author regarding her Final Year Project entitled “Effect of Sintering Time on Properties of Carbon Nanotubes Reinforced Aluminum Composite”. Materials used for this project are Multi wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and aluminum powder. Research methodology of this project involves characterization of aluminum powder and MWCNTs powder, fabrication of green test samples by using powder metallurgy technique; mixing and compacting, followed with sintering of samples with different interval of time (60min, 90 min and 120 min) and finally, characterization of sintered samples based on dimension, density, hardness and correlated tensile strength with hardness.
