The present study is to fabricate AZ91E alloy matrix composite by varying the Bagasse ash particle (50μm) content (0, 5, 7.5, and 10wt%) via vacuum stir casting technique. The samples were characterized for its mechanical and microstructure properties. The mechanical properties of BAP reinforced composites were evaluated as per the ASTM standard and compared to unreinforced AZ91E alloy. The effect of reinforcement and distribution of BAP has been examined through a scanning electron microscope. The results of AZ91E magnesium alloy with 10wt% of BAP have found to have maximum tensile strength. The impact strength and hardness shows a marginal increase with increasing bagasse ash particle.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
