Summary:The present paper describes a cost effective route to produce Al alloy-10 wt % TiB2 metal matrix composites by in-situ molten flux assisted reaction synthesis. Now a days main focus is given to aluminium alloy as a matrix material due to its unique combination of good corrosion resistance, low density, superior mechanical properties, good vibration damping, higher wear resistance due to which alloy finds extensive applications in naval applications. With TiB2 as particulate addition in Al-Alloy (Al-5Mg) matrix properties of alloy can greatly be improved.
