In the present study, alumina reinforced copper metal matrix composites were prepared by stir casting method. Three different specimens were prepared by changing the weight ratio of alumina to copper. The samples were prepared by adding 10%, 20% and 30% alumina to copper matrix. The three specimens were subjected to mechanical, thermal and corrosion testing, in order to find out the properties of the material. Various mechanical tests like hardness, impact and corrosion were performed including thermal conductivity to understand the behaviour of the specimens under combined loads. Specimen number 2 which was 80%-20% copper to alumina was found to be the best combination for such type of applications.Keywords
