	%X The present work consecutively on synthesis and
characterization of composites, Al/Al alloy A 384.1 as matrix in
which the main ingredient as Al/Al-5% MgO alloy based metal
matrix composite. As practical implications the low cost processing
route for the fabrication of Al alloy A 384.1 and operational
difficulties of presently available manufacturing processes based in
liquid manipulation methods. As all new developments, complete
understanding of the influence of processing variables upon the final
quality of the product. And the composite is applied comprehensively
to the acquaintance for achieving superiority of information
concerning the specific heat measurement of a material through the
aid of thermographs. Products are evaluated concerning relative
particle size and mechanical behavior under tensile strength.
Furthermore, Taguchi technique was employed to examine the
experimental optimum results are achieved, owing to effectiveness of
this approach.
