Abstract

The superior performance. metal matrix nano-composite substance containing agro-waste reinforcements is the subject of this study's manufacturing and characterization efforts. Composites made using aluminum 7075 as their basis substance with reinforced with rice husk ash (RHA) and Al₂O₃ are very desirable. The revolutionary composite was made using squeeze casting as the fabrication technique. The overall size % of ash from rice husks on its metal interface was adjusted from 0% to 15% with a constant increase of 5%, while the Al₂O₃ percentage was set at 3. Many qualities, including hardness, toughness, tensile strength, XRD analysis, XDS analysis, Surface Morphology and wear, define the manufactured composite. According to the findings, the produced cost-effective composite outperforms the raw material in terms of hardness, toughness, and tensile strength.
