Abstract

Aluminum-silicon (Al-Si) nanocomposites have emerged as promising materials for applications at higher-temperatures as they have superior mechanical properties and thermal stability. Present study examines the high-temperature performance of Al-Si nanocomposites fabricated by casting method assisted by ultrasonic cavitation. This ultrasonic cavitation-assisted casting improves nanoparticle dispersion, minimizes agglomeration, and improves bounding of matrix-reinforcement. The developed composites enhanced hardness, tensile strength, and thermal stability at elevated temperatures. The paper puts forward a complete analysis of the thermal performance of composites under high-temperature conditions, mechanical behaviour, demonstrating the potential of ultrasonic processing in the development of advanced nanocomposites.
