The present work aims to improve the microstructure and hardness related properties of age hardened Al6061-SiC reinforced composites produced by a two stage stir casting method. Three composites with 2, 4, and 6wt. % (35-40μm) of SiC reinforcement are subjected to microstructural examination and hardness test at different locations to analyse the uniform distribution of the reinforcements in the matrix. As-cast composites are solution-treated at 558°C, followed by an aging treatment conducted at 100, 150, and 200°C, during which peak hardness values are noted. The peak aged samples are subjected to hardness and wear tests. In line with the objectives, ranges from 80-100% and 120-145% additional increase in hardness values are observed over as-cast alloy during the aging treatment conducted at 100, 150 and 200°C, respectively. Lower temperature aging shows substantial improvement in hardness and wear resistance over high temperature aging in each respective group. Also higher weight percentages of reinforced composites show excellent wear resistance, due to the presence of eroded iron particles from the counter surface which is regarded as a beneficial effect during the wear test. The presence of SiC particles provides more sites for the nucleation of fine precipitates. These fine precipitates hinder the movement of dislocation and thus increases hardness as well as wear resistance after the precipitation hardening treatment.

ABSTRAK
Komposit aluminium 6061 dengan partikel penguat nano SiC sudah banyak dikembangkan untuk aplikasi yang membutuhkan sifat mekanis yang baik dengan densitas yang rendah. Dalam rangka mencapai performa yang lebih baik, perlakuan panas T6 diberikan untuk meningkatkan sifat mekanis material komposit. Pada penelitian ini dilakukan proses perlakuan panas T6 dengan variasi waktu aging 2 jam, 4 jam, 6 jam, 8 jam, dan 10 jam pada temperatur 175 oC. Solution treatment dilakukan pada temperatur 440 oC selama 1 jam. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa waktu optimum aging adalah 10 jam yang ditandai dengan hasil kekerasan paling tinggi yaitu sebesar 66,22 HRB dan laju aus paling rendah yaitu sebesar 1,09 x 10-6 mm3/mm. Pengaruh perlakuan panas T6 terhadap hasil uji tarik sangat rendah akibat adanya porositas. Hasil struktur mikro dari mikroskop optik dan SEM menunjukkan adanya fasa α-Al, Mg2Si biner (Al+Mg2Si), dan fasa intermetalik β-Al2Mg3.

ABSTRACT
Aluminum 6061 composites reinforced by SiC nanoparticles has been widely used for high performance applications with low denstity. In order to obtain a better performance, artificial aging is conducted to improve mechanical properties of composite. In this study, aging treatment was done with varying aging time: 2h, 4h, 6h, 8h, and 10h at 175 oC with solution treatment at 440 oC for 1h. The results showed that the optimum aging time was achieved by 10h with the highest hardness up to 66,22 HRB and wear rate reached the lowest value by 1,09 x 10-6 mm3/mm. Heat treatment process did not show a strong influence to tensile strength due to a porosity. OM and SEM observation exhibit α-Al and binary Mg2Si (Al+Mg2Si) phases, and intermetallic phases of β-Al2Mg3.

Toleransi kerusakan yang unggul dibandingkan produk komersial lainnya menjadikan paduan aluminium 2091 banyak digunakan dalam industri dirgantara. Sifatnya yang ringan, low density, dan ketahanan korosi yang baik membuat paduan aluminium 2091 menjadi material kategori paduan aluminium-lithium yang dapat mengurangi berat total dengan baik. Berbagai macam perlakuan panas dikembangkan untuk mendapatkan variasi sifat yang akan digunakan dalam pengaplikasian tertentu. Faktor-faktor seperti konstituen pembentuk paduan, aging time, dan temperatur aging dapat memodifikasi struktur dan sifat elektrokimia paduan. Penelitian ini dilakukan guna mempelajari pengaruh aging time terhadap parameter struktural dan sifat korosi paduan aluminium 2091. Solution treatment pada temperatur 525°C selama 5 jam dan quenching pada media air dalam suhu kamar dilakukan sebelum dikenakan perlakuan aging time. Variasi aging time berlangsung selama 24 jam, 48 jam, dan 72 jam. Sifat korosi dipelajari dengan polarisasi potensiodinamik dalam larutan elektrolit bioethanol 98% variasi temperatur 5°C, 25°C, dan 43°C. X-ray diffraction dilakukan untuk mengamati fasa dan perubahan struktur paduan. Linear sweep voltammetry dan cyclic voltammetry dilaksanakan untuk menganalisis laju korosi dan reversibilitas reaksi. Sebagai hasilnya, perubahan parameter struktural dan laju korosi bergantung dengan perlakuan panas aging time karena pengaruh fasa intermetalik yang terbentuk. Meskipun begitu, laju korosi pada temperatur elektrolit yang rendah juga memiliki nilai yang lebih rendah. Laju korosi paling cepat ditemukan pada sampel 24 jam bernilai 5.453 × 10^-2 mmpy dalam bioethanol dengan temperatur 43°C. Data voltamogram menunjukkan reaksi bersifat tidak reversibel.

Excellent damage tolerance compared to commercial products makes aluminium 2091 alloy is widely used in the aerospace industry. Its light weighted, low density, and good corrosion resistance make aluminum 2091 an aluminum-lithium category material that can reduce total weight nicely. Various kind of heat treatments have developed to obtain properties modification that will be used in certain applications. Factors such as alloying elements, aging time, and aging temperature can affect structure and electrochemical properties of the alloy. This research was meant to study the effect of aging time on structural parameters and corrosion properties of aluminum alloy 2091. Solution treatment at 525°C for 5 hours and water-based rapid cooling at room temperature were carried out before aging treatments. Variation in aging time lasts for 24 hours, 48 hours, and 72 hours. Corrosion properties were studied by potentiodynamic polarization in bioethanol 98% electrolyte solutions with temperature variation of 5°C, 25°C, and 43°C. X-ray diffraction was done to observe the phase and change in the alloy structure. Linear sweep voltammetry and cyclic voltammetry were carried out to analyze corrosion rates and reaction reversibility. As a result, changes in structural parameters and corrosion rates very dependent on aging time due to the influence of the intermetallic phase. However, corrosion rates at low electrolyte temperatures also have lower values. The fastest corrosion rate was found in a 24 hours sample of aging, with a value of 5.453 × 10^-2 mmpy in bioethanol at 43°C. Voltamogram result data shows the reaction is not reversible.
