Aluminum matrix composites containing 3, 6, 9, 12 and15% BN has been fabricated by conventional microwave sintering at 550 °C temperature. Compounds formation between Al and BN powders is observed after sintering under Ar shroud. XRD, SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope), mechanical testing and measurements were employed to characterize the properties of Al + BN composite. Exper imental results suggest that the best properties as hardness 42, 62 HV were obtained for Al+12% BN composite.
