A comparative study using silicon carbide and zirconium dioxide nano material’s to improve the mechanical properties of 6261AA

The applications of nanotechnology differ in different areas life. Despite all the advantages nano-materials, there are many difficulties that need further research most important which is obtaining cheap, practical materials with appropriate specifications for use various applications. This study examines addition multiple proportions two (Silicon Carbide and Zirconia) to 6261 Aluminum alloy. Results were obtained stating using nano-materials together better than each one separately. best ultimate tensile strength (UTS)waders at (1.5-2.0 wt%)ratios ranging. 1.5% wt. ZrO2 (%SiC+% ZrO2).The improvements (75.1 %) (92 respectively. UTS (84.3%) Al/ 2.0wt. %SiC. Also, a significant improvement was seen hardness values weight ratios nano-additives respect base percentage ductility has decreased after adding nano-materials.
