Synthesis of Zinc oxide and CNT in AA7178 aluminium alloy composite impression on characteristics

In this experimental study concentrated to categorize involvement of the Carbon Nano Tube (CNT) presence in the
composite of the
Aluminium alloy of AA7178 with five percentage of the zinc oxide. The
mechanical properties of the
178 aluminium alloy were taken for the comparison with composites. Composites were created with the combination
of AA7178, ZnO and CNT. ZnO participation is 5% of volume in all the composites. CNT varies from zero to five
percentage and remaining volume is filled with aluminium alloy. The most important properties of these composites
such as hardness,
compressive strength,
shear strength and fatigue
strength were taken for the comparison. The
improved property achieved specimen composition is recommended for the corresponding property related
applications.
