Study of mechanical properties on Nano metal matrix Composites: Duralcan process

Aluminium metal matrix nanocomposites with aluminium nanoparticles were created using the durolcan process. It is a stir casting process in which metals and ceramics are layered one on top of the other and composites are formed through heating and stirring. The nano Al2O3 was used in the composite in weight percentages of 1,1.5 and 2.5. The hardness and tensile strength of composite properties with and without heat treatment were investigated. According to the results of the tests, increasing the percentage of nanoparticles increases the hardness of the composite materials
