Al 5251-based hybrid nanocomposite by FSP reinforced with graphene nanoplates and boron nitride nanoparticles: Microstructure, wear, and mechanical characterization

The strength and wear resistance of aluminium alloys must be improved to enhance their usage in lightweight constructions. Thus, in this study, graphene nanoplates (GNPs) and boron nitride (BN) nanoparticles were reinforced into the Al 5251 aluminium alloy by friction stir processing (FSP). The Al 5...
