LING et al[25] produced AMCs
reinforced with up to 30% (volume fraction) SiC by PM
technique and studied the mechanical property variation
with the volume fraction of SiC particles. They found
that the EM increased at 10% SiC loading, kept constant
at 20%, and dropped at 30%. The drop was explained by
the increased porosity in the composite containing 30%
SiC.
