The SiCp/AC8A composites were fabricated by the pressureless metal infiltration process successfully. The effect of additional Mg, which were mixed with SiC particles to promote interfacial wetting between the reinforcement and matrix alloy, and particle size on the mechanical properties was investigated. By increasing the additional Mg content the hardness of SiCp/AC8A composites was increased due to the hard reaction products, but the bending strength was decreased by the excess reaction of Mg and high porosity level when the additional Mg content is over 7%. The Hardness and bending strength was increased by decreasing the size of SiC particle.

The effect of size and volume fraction of ceramic particles, with sliding velocity on the wear properties were investigated for the metal matrix composites fabricated by the pressureless infiltration process. The metal matrix composites exhibited about 5.5 - 6 times the wear resistance compared with AC8A alloy at high sliding velocity, and by increasing the particle size and decreasing the volume fraction, the wear resistance was improved. The wear resistance of metal matrix composites and AC8A alloy exhibited different aspects. Wear loss of AC8A alloy increased with sliding velocity, linearly : whereas, metal matrix composites indicated more wear loss than AC8A alloy at the slow velocity region. However, a transition point of wear loss was found at the middle velocity region, which shows the minimum wear loss. Further, wear loss at the high velocity region exhibited nearly the same value as the slow velocity region. In terms of wear mechanism, the metal matrix composites generally exhibited abrasive wear at slow to high sliding velocity； however, AC8A alloy showed abrasive wear at low sliding velocity and adhesive and melt wear at high sliding velocity.

The effects of additional Mg content, the size and volume fraction of reinforcement phase on the mechanical properties of ceramic particle reinforced aluminium matrix composites fabricated by pressureless metal infiltration process were investigated. The hardness of $SiC_p/AC8A$ composites increased gradually with an increase in the additive Mg content, while the bending strength of $SiC_p/AC8A$ composites increased with an increase in additive Mg content up to 5%. However, this decreased when the level of additive Mg content was greater than 5% due to the formation of coarse precipitates by excessive Mg reaction and an increase in the porosity level. The hardness and strength of the composites increased with decreasing the size of SiC particle. It was found that the composites with smaller particles enhanced the interfacial bonding than those with bigger particles from fractography of the composites. The hardness of $Al_2O_{3p}/AC8A$ composites increased gradually with an increase in the volume fraction, however, the bending strength of $Al_2O_{3p}/AC8A$ composites decreased when the volume fraction of alumina particle was greater than 40% owing to the high porosity level.

무가압함침법에 의해 제조된 SiCp/AC8A복합재료에 대하여 SiC 입자 크기와 부가적인 Mg의 첨가가 복합재료의 기계적 성질과 마모특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. SiCp/AC8A복합재료의 경도와 굽힘강도는 입자의 크기가 작아짐에 따라 증가하였다. Mg 첨가량이 증가함에 따라 SiCP/AC8A복합재료의 경도는 경질의 반응생성물에 의해 상승하였으나 굽힘강도는 석출물의 조대화와 기공율의 증대에 의해 저하하였다. SiCp/AC8A복합재료는 AC8A 기지재에 비하여 고속의 마찰속도에서 6배의 내마모성을 나타냈으며 강화입자의 크기가 작아짐에 따라 내마모성은 향상되는 것으로 나타났다. 마모기구에 있어서 SiCp/AC8A복합재료는 마찰속도에 관계없이 연삭마모를 나타냈으나 AC8A 기지재는 마찰속도가 고속화됨에 따라 응착 및 용융마모의 마모면을 나타냈다.
