An attempt has been made to synthesize the aluminium based ex-situ (Al-SiC) and in-situ (Al-TiB₂) formed metal matrix composites with varying weight percentage of reinforcement contents such as 4wt.%, 6wt.% and 8wt.%. Synthesized composites were subjected to a cold extrusion process followed by heat treatment according to the ASTM B 918-01 standards. The mechanical properties of in-situ composites were evaluated as per the ASTM guidelines and compared with ex-situ formed composites and base metal properties. Superior properties were noticed in the in-situ formed composites and the mechanical properties such as yield strength, Ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and Hardness for both ex-situ and in-situ composites were found to increase with increasing the reinforcement addition. Cold extruded Al-8 wt.% SiC composite properties such as hardness, yield strength and UTS are 87 R_B, 152 MPa, 216 MPa respectively. Whereas, for Al-8 wt.% TiB₂ composite, the corresponding properties are 94 R_B, 192 MPa, 293 MPa. The morphology of the composites is analysed by Optical and Scanning Electron Microscopic (SEM) whereas presence of reinforcement particles such SiC and TiB₂ along with intermetallic phases Mg₂Si and Al₅FeSi are confirmed by EDX, XRD and Element Mapping analyses.
