摘要

Metal matrix composites (MMC’s) are now playing an indispensable role in today’s manufacturing scenarios, in industries, where, the components require the high strength and reduced weight. These materials are crucial in applications involving, automobile manufacturing, aerospace engineering, and various industrial sectors. The study investigates the fabrication of hybrid nanocomposites of Aluminum 6063 with TiO2 and ZrO2 nanoparticles (NPs) as reinforcements, fabricated by stir casting. The experimental results demonstrated significant enhancements in impact energy absorption, Vickers hardness, and strength with raising the reinforcement content. Reduced wear rates (WR) and coefficient of friction (COF) are observed that attributed to improved dispersion and surface interactions induced by NPs. The study concludes that TiO2 and ZrO2 NPs synergistically enhanced the mechanical and tribological characteristics of Al6063, offering potential applications in industries requiring durable and high-performance materials. The findings indicate that the incorporation of NPs into Al6063-matrices is a viable method for enhancing tribomechanical characteristics. Applications that require materials with enhanced durability, resilience, and hardness, including aviation structures, automobile parts, and sports products, might discover this of considerable appeal.
