“…Predominently, these ex situ composites possess low degree of bonding with the matrix leading to easy debonding during tensile loads. Due to this, few researchers shifted their work towards synthesizing the in‐situ aluminium composites which resulted in better adhesion between the particle and matrix [14]. Among in‐situ composites, magnesium aluminate has emerged as an excellent reinforcement owing to its low density, high‐temperature strength, high hardness and chemical inertness.…”

Aluminium‐2magnesium alloy castings find its application in engineering sectors where fatigue property is a key requirement. Few researches have been carried out in the past to improve its fatigue property by micro, nano reinforcements. However, the requirement of intended application has not yet attained and hence this current research study has been taken up to provide a solution. This research work focuses through a novel approach for synthesizing in‐situ magnesium aluminate particles in aluminium‐2magnesium alloy by the addition of manganese dioxide and copper oxide precursor addition (1 wt.%, 1.5 wt.% and 2 wt.%) during the casting process. Microstructure of fabricated composites were examined through field emission scanning electron microscopy to characterize the morphology and distribution of magnesium aluminate particles. The fabricated aluminium‐2magnesium/magnesium aluminate in‐situ composite specimens were subjected to low cycle fatigue testing at two different strain amplitudes of 0.3 % and 0.4 % and a frequency of 0.3 Hz. Among all composite specimens, specimens reinforced with 2 wt.% manganese dioxide and 2 wt.% copper oxide outperformed when tested in strain amplitudes of 0.3 % and 0.4 % respectively. Fractography studies were performed on failed composite specimens to study the modes of failure that resulted after fatigue testing.

“…Incorporating hexagonal boron nitride HBN nanoparticles into aluminum alloys improves the materials' wear resistance, hardness, and mechanical properties [21][22][23]. Mono-composites have the disadvantage of improving many properties because, rationally speaking, they only focus on improving one or two properties at most [24][25][26][27]. For this reason, many researchers have developed hybrid metal matrix composites using more than one reinforcement particle to increase their mechanical properties, as well as increase any property that they would like to add to the new composite, depending on the type of reinforcement particles that have been hybridized with the metal matrix [28,29].…”

The ceramic particle reinforcement process is one of the most utilized techniques to enhance the metal surface. The current investigation uses vanadium and niobium carbides to reinforce the AA6061 alloy using the friction stir process (FSP). The mechanical properties are evaluated using ultrasound and conventional compressive tests; furthermore, the microstructure and physical properties are carried out to show the effect of single and hybrid additives of ceramic particles on the surface composites of aluminum alloy. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is utilized to examine the presence and distribution of the reinforcement VC and NbC particles inside the composite matrix. The microstructure examination revealed a good dispersion and homogenized distribution of the reinforcement particles. The results indicated that reinforcement particles significantly enhanced the mechanical and physical properties. The VC and NbC particles play an important role in improving the surface hardening behavior and grain refinement by restricting grain growth during the dynamic recrystallization process in the FSP action. The hybrid composited AA6061/NbC + VC recorded an increase in the compressive stress, yield stress, and hardness of 25%, 20%, and 50%, respectively, relative to the base metal, in addition to a 55% decrease in the coefficient of the thermal expansion (CTE) was reported. Moreover, the hybrid composite AA6061/NbC + VC significantly affected the corrosion rate with a reduction of 45%.

In this article, the effect of infusion of silver nanoparticles into the base oil lubricants was investigated. In this study, Jatropha and Pongamia oils were used as base oils and silver nanoparticles infused at 0.25%, 0.5%, and 0.75% weight-percentage of the base oils to create nano-based bio-lubricants. The influence of silver nanoparticles on the Tribological and Thermophysical properties of the base oils was analyzed through various test procedures. The Pin-on-disc tribometer test was done to measure friction and wear at various loads. Pin made of Aluminum metal matrix composite fabricated by stir casting method was used and the results revealed that the inclusion of silver nanoparticles significantly improved the friction and wear properties of the base oils. Pin-worn surface morphology was analyzed using a field emission scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction. Thermal conductivity and kinematic viscosity of nano-based bio-lubricants were evaluated as per ASTM standards and the results showed that both the thermal conductivity and kinematic viscosity increased with the infusion of silver nanoparticles.
