Abstract

In this research paper, an empirical relationship is developed to envisage the impact strength of stainless steel wire-mesh and SiCp reinforced aluminum composite laminates produced through the explosive cladding. The process parameters viz., stand-off distance, explosive loading ratio, wire-mesh orientation and wt% of SiCp were optimized in four factors, three levels Box–Behnken design with full appropriateness. Analysis of Variance indicates that the wt% of SiCp possess the greatest sway on impact strength, trailed by stand-off distance, explosive loading ratio and wire-mesh orientation. The interfacial microstructure of the optimized condition reveals the presence of silicon carbide (SiC) as the wt% of SiCp is increased from 0 to 3%. X-ray diffraction analysis of the clad interface shows the absence of brittle intermetallic compounds. The impact fracture faces of the optimized clad reveals a ductile manner of fracture with elevated impact strength.
