Discussion

Experimental work demonstrates optimal tensile and compressive strength in AA2024 composites, highlighting boron carbide's role in performance.

The composite reinforced with 12 wt.% boron carbide achieved optimal tensile and compressive strength, improving overall mechanical performance.
Tensile, compression, and wear tests indicated significant enhancements in the material's strength-to-weight ratio with boron carbide reinforcement.
Thermogravimetric analysis showed minimal effect of reinforcement composition on the thermal stability of the composites, with slight variations observed.
Statistical analysis highlighted that applied load is the most significant factor influencing wear characteristics of the metal matrix composites.

Gaurav et al. (2025) studied this question.
