Abstract:
In this experiment, the nano-SiC particles are introduced to the A7075 alloy while it is still liquid, followed by permanent mold stir casting. There were four different weight fractions used: 0 wt%, 0.5 wt%, 1 wt%, and 1.5 wt%. The addition of nano-SiC particles was done at three different percentages. Composites were treated using stir casting and a permanent mold die. A specialized mold can be used to create test specimens for tensile and microhardness. Tensile testing was used to measure the aluminum composites' fracture strength. The lowest average strength (254 MPa) and lowest average yield strength (106 MPa) were found in the 0 wt% nano SiC aluminum matrix composites. The greatest average strength (316 MPa) and highest average yield strength (106 MPa) were found in the 1.5 wt% composites. Hardness tests were carried out to determine the maximum value. The hardness values for the cast specimens increased from 102 to 115 Vickers (10 kg), respectively, as the concentration of nano-SiC particles increased from 0 to 1.5 wt%.
