Al6061-SiC-AlN composites were manufactured using the ultrasonic stir casting method. As reinforcement, silicon carbide and aluminium nitride (both 3 and 6 percent by wt.) were used to provide mechanical properties including tensile, compressive, and hardness. Al6061-SiC-AlN hybrid composite samples' tensile strength, compressive strength, and hardness were measured. Al6061-SiC-AlN hybrid composites' tensile, compressive, and hardness properties are calculated and compared to those of the matrix Al 6061 alloy. The tensile strength, compressive strength, and hardness all rose from 328 to 385 MPa, 145 to 178 MPa, and 302 to 724 VHN, respectively, with the addition of SiC and AlN nanoparticles. The suggested composite is compared to unreinforced Al6061 in terms of density and mechanical qualities such ultimate tensile strength, yield strength, impact strength, hardness, and wear characteristics. The results of the experimental examination showed that the produced hybrid composite, which contains 20% of the total reinforcing material, has no appreciable increase in impact strength but displays high hardness, high yield strength, and low wear rate.

The enhancement of composites’ mechanical characteristics (tensile, compressive, and hardness) is a constant demand for technological advancement. The stir casting process is used to make the hybrid aluminium alloy metal matrix composites Al 6061-SiC-AlN in our present study. To create mechanical qualities such as tensile, compressive, and hardness, silicon carbide and aluminium nitride (both 3% and 6%) were utilized as the reinforcement. The tensile strength, compressive strength, and hardness of the Al 6061-SiC-AlN hybrid composites samples were determined. The tensile, compressive, and hardness parameters of Al 6061-SiC-AlN hybrid composites are estimated and evaluated to those of the matrix Al 6061 alloy. With the inclusion of silicon carbide and AlN nanoparticles, the tensile strength, compressive strength, and hardness increased from 328 to 385 MPa, 145 to 178 Mpa, and 302 to 724 VHN, respectively.

“…Compared to these methods, the liquid route for Al-MMC processing presents the most promising evidence in terms of potential to be scalable to industrial levels, allowing competitiveness even with high processing volume. They may be explored through different techniques such as mechanical stirring [7][8][9][10], which may have gas injection [11,12], and ultrasonic vibration [13][14][15]. Regarding mechanical stirring, despite its attractive low cost and potential to be scalable [16], it has reported drawbacks such as non-homogeneous particle dispersion [17,18] and weak interface bonding between particles and the metal matrix [19,20].…”

The present study details the micro-scale silicon carbide particle (m-SiCp) homogeneous distribution in an A356 alloy through hybrid ultrasonic-stirring melt treatment under different operation conditions. Ultrasonically excited fluids were studied by particle image velocimetry to estimate the efficiency of the acoustic streaming in different distances to the sonotrode. Distinct particle approaches to introduce the melt and stirring techniques were performed to determine a successful route to promote a homogenous distribution of reinforcement particles. Results showed that the addition of m-SiCp in the semisolid state significantly improved particle wettability, preventing rapid sedimentation. The combination of ultrasonic induced streaming and mechanical stirring is an effective tool for the homogeneous distribution of m-SiCp along the casting specimen.
