Abstract
There is a massive demand for lightweight, cost-effective and rapidly processed products because of their significant level of excellence in these days. In the present work, the impact of electric stir casting on 7075 based aluminum alloy developed along with Nano Al O with particle dimension (20-30) Nano microns and weight percentages 2 3 1.0, 2.0,3.0, 4.0 has been studied. Many researchers revealed the non uniform distribution of Nano particles possessing high porosity in the matrix. Electric stir casting can prevent the troubles integrating with mechanical stir casting. By infusing Al O particulates right into Aluminium alloy, the Aluminium 7075/1 % Wt. Al O is giving place to 2 3 2 3 Nanocomposite. By incorporating 1% Micro magnesium powder improved the wettability of the reinforcement. SEM micrographs reported that the Nano particles were consistently dispersed throughout the matrix and also executed the efficient grain microstructure. The tensile strength, hardness, and impact results of Al7075/1 % Wt. Al O Nanocomposites have efficiently increased as compared to the Al7075 base alloy.
