| Abstract | ||
| Aluminum alloys are very important in many industrial applications because of their lights weight and good mechanical properties. There is a great need to recycle the metals and alloys used in the metallurgical industry and various engineering applications, particularly aluminum alloys due to their low melting point and usefulness. In this work, the effect of copper wires addition with different percent on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Al-Si alloy (piston part as a scrape) were studied. Tensile test, hardness, microstructure SEM and XRD were conducted .The results showed that the addition of copper to the alloy (Al-12wt%Si) have improved its mechanical properties (tensile strength, yield strength and hardness) also changed microstructure of Al-Si alloy as compared with the base alloy | ||
