AbstractIn this study, effect of boron nitride particles on the mechanical properties of aluminum composites reinforced with BN particles was investigated. Experimental procedure was started with mixturing of powders in the turbula mixer. Hot press was applied at 550 C in argon atmosphere. For characterization of microstructure, scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis was done. Compression test was applied for determination of strength. Vickers hardness was used to measure hardness of samples.
