ABSTRACT:
A cast composite material is formed from about 5 to about 35 volume percent of particulate reinforcement, preferably silicon carbide particles, embedded in an aluminum alloy matrix having from about 8.5 to about 12.6, most preferably about 9.5 to about 11.0, weight percent silicon. The cast composite material is particularly well suited for use as a foundry alloy for remelting purposes. Other alloying elements may be added without interfering with the beneficial effects of the silicon.
