A stir die casting coupled with chill casting technique was used to prepare the Al-Ti-Cr composite with variable percentage of SiC and B4C particles. The electrolytic grade of 300 mesh powder was added in the molten of commercially master alloy of Al-Ti-Cr by the simultaneously addition of SiC and B...
