The paper is the result of investigations made on microstructure and mechanical behavior of 3 and 6 weight percentage of nano sized B4C particulate reinforced to Al7075 alloy composites. Al7075 matrix composite having nano boron carbide was fabricated by liquid stir casting method. The microstructur...
