“…In addition, to address the low strength and ductility characteristics of AlSi alloys, particle-reinforced AlSi10Mg composite materials have been developed, such as graphene, SiC, TiO2, TiC, AlN, and TiCN ceramic particles [ 144 , 145 , 146 ]. Studies have shown that with the reinforcement of nanoceramic particles, only a low content (2%) is required to achieve strength and toughness comparable to high-strength aluminum alloys (>500 MPa).…”

Due to its lightweight, high strength, good machinability, and low cost, aluminum alloy has been widely used in fields such as aerospace, automotive, electronics, and construction. Traditional manufacturing processes for aluminum alloys often suffer from low material utilization, complex procedures, and long manufacturing cycles. Therefore, more and more scholars are turning their attention to the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process for aluminum alloys, which has the advantages of high material utilization, good formability for complex structures, and short manufacturing cycles. However, the widespread promotion and application of LPBF aluminum alloys still face challenges. The excellent printable ability, favorable mechanical performance, and low manufacturing cost are the main factors affecting the applicability of the LPBF process for aluminum alloys. This paper reviews the research status of traditional aluminum alloy processing and LPBF aluminum alloy and makes a comparison from various aspects such as microstructures, mechanical properties, application scenarios, and manufacturing costs. At present, the LPBF manufacturing cost for aluminum alloys is 2–120 times higher than that of traditional manufacturing methods, with the discrepancy depending on the complexity of the part. Therefore, it is necessary to promote the further development and application of aluminum alloy 3D printing technology from three aspects: the development of aluminum matrix composite materials reinforced with nanoceramic particles, the development of micro-alloyed aluminum alloy powders specially designed for LPBF, and the development of new technologies and equipment to reduce the manufacturing cost of LPBF aluminum alloy.

This study explores the use of waste bagasse ash as reinforcement in aluminum-based composites manufactured via stir casting. Bagasse ash particles were methodically introduced into molten aluminum at 700°C while being stirred at 500 rpm for 12 minutes to achieve uniform dispersion. The addition of 7.5% waste bagasse ash resulted in significant improvements across multiple mechanical properties. Tensile strength increased by 12.45%, hardness showed a remarkable enhancement of 21.32%, fatigue strength exhibited a substantial improvement of 19.45%, and wear resistance demonstrated a notable enhancement of 18.76%, all compared to the base composite. These findings highlight the effectiveness of utilizing waste bagasse ash as reinforcement, offering a sustainable approach to enhance the mechanical properties of aluminum-based composites. This research contributes to advancing eco-friendly manufacturing practices and underscores the potential of waste materials in optimizing material performance.
