<strong>Abstract</strong><br>
Abstract- Aluminium-11% Silicon-3% Copper alloy was produced by casting route. The variation of mechanical properties 
of the alloy on as-received, homogenized, solution treatment, and after artificial ageing at 200°C has been studied. 
Microstructural characterization studies and hardness values were investigated. The fractured samples were observed by 
Scanning Electron Microscope. The present investigation revealed that the maximum tensile strength and hardness values 
were in peak aged condition. Corrosive behaviour of as-received samples was studied in sea water environment and in severe 
corrosive environment. It was found that appreciable resistance have been shown by as-received samples as revealed in the 
icrostructures.
