Abstract:Aluminium metal matrix composites are increasingly being used in numerous industries due to their lightweight nature and high strength. The incorporation of graphene into aluminium metal matrix composites has garnered significant interest owing to graphene's capacity to enhance numerous properties concurrently. Hence, this study aimed to fabricate a 0.3 wt.% graphene nanoplatelets reinforced A356 alloy (GNP-A356) composite through stir casting followed by thixoforming and short T6 heat treatment processes.
