Influence on tensile and yield strength in composites of heat-treated AA6463 alloy by copper oxide nano particles

The strength-to-weight ratio provided by AA6XXX alloys and their improved mechanical characteristics have emerged as keyrequirements for their use in light weight military vehicles, rockets, missiles, aircrafts, and cars, employed for both defense and civilpurpose. The effects of the alloying elements that are often utilized for forged AA6XXX alloys are addressed while taking into accounttheir interactions. We address the importance of alloying as well as processing to generate certain qualities and the underlyingstrengthening mechanisms. These AA6XXX alloys are often and effectively used in structural applications for both civil and militarypurposes. In this experimental investigation mainly focused on ultimate tensile strength and yield strength variations in AA6463 alloyby Copper

nanoparticle
. There are five composites of aluminium alloy and CuO nano particle combinations were createdby
stir casting
method for the comparison with the individual AA6463 alloy specimen. Cuo nano particle concentration increasedfrom 2% to 10% with 2% of variation in volume of material basis in the composite. Individual specimens were prepared and tested asper standards. 94 % of AA6463 with 6% of CuO nano particle mixed composite have the greatest tensile and yield strength among thecomposites in this investigation.
