Effects Of 600 Microns Particles of Eggshell on Tensile Strength of Zinc-Aluminum (ZA27) Alloy
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Research In Engineering & Management. - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 9
Abstract
The study investigates the effects of eggshell particulate and particulate sizes on tenstile strength of ZA27 MMC where eggshell served as particulate reinforcement. ZA27 MMC was produced by melting and casting ZA27 alloy and particulate eggshell in a lift-out crucible furnace, to produce rods of ZA27 MMC. Control sample rods which have no eggshell content were also produced by melting and casting in sand molds. The tensile strength of the produced rods were tested, and the results show a significant dependence of this property on added particulate eggshell content.
