Aluminium alloys have good mechanical and physical properties and are lightweight, easy to cast, and simple to machine. Aluminium alloys are widely used in the aviation industry, auto sector, defence sector, and structural industries because of their promising abilities. The fundamental aim of this study was to investigate the mechanical properties and physical characteristics of a stir cast hybrid aluminium nanocomposite reinforced with 1-3 wt.% cerium oxide (CeO2) and graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs). Utilizing SEM, microstructural analysis was carried out. The existence of the elements of the reinforcement in the manufactured nanocomposite specimens was verified using EDAX. With an increase in the reinforcement wt.%, improvements in the mechanical and physical properties were seen. In the hybrid nanocomposites reinforced with 3 wt.% GNPs and 3 wt.% CeO2, a low porosity of 1.06% was observed. The best results for tensile strength, yield strength, and microhardness were 398 MPa, 247 MPa, and 119.6 HV, respectively. The SEM micrographs of the studied materials showed that the reinforcement particles were uniformly dispersed and refined into ultrafine grains.

Purpose: In this paper, three composites with different B4C content and fixed h-BN nanoparticles reinforced aluminium composites were fabricated through ultrasonic cavitation assisted casting. The role of the B4C and h-BN nanoparticles content on the mechanical and tribological properties of the aluminium composites was evaluated. This study presents the report on characterizion and evaluation of mechanical properties of h-BN and B4C nanoparticles reinforced aluminium composites. Design/methodology/approach: Al-B4C-h-BN composites are fabricated using stir and ultrasonic cavitation-assisted casting processes. The prepared composites are characterized using X-ray diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy and Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy. The dry sliding wear behaviour of the Al-B4C-h-BN composites are investigated using pin-on-disc wear test. Findings: The results of microstructural study reveal that uniform distribution, grain refinement and low porosity in composite specimens. The wear properties of the hybrid nanocomposites, containing 4 wt% B4C and 2 wt. % h-BN, exhibit the superior wear resistance properties as compared to unreinforced aluminium matrix. Practical implications: The interest in use of hexagonal boron nitride nanoparticles (h-BN) as solid nano lubricant for aluminium has been growing considerably due to its self lubricating properties.
