Abstract

Al6061 alloy is most commonly used in automotive industry, marine industry and aerospace industry applications to reduce weight and improve strength of the composite. Al6061 alloy used as matrix material. The powder of bone is used asreinforcement to produce the Al6061 alloy-based bio composite. As bone takes long period of time to decompose that will affect the environment and the people living near the disposal area of bone. Bone has good compression strength and it is light in weight, which helps to improve the strength of the Al6061 alloy composite. The Al6061 alloy-based bio composite is produced through powder metallurgy method and the samples were successfully obtained for testing and analysis. Theprepared samples are analysed for hardness test, compression test and wear test.
