Description
Summary:In India, urban solid waste generation has risen over the last decade. The aspect of waste generation is a large amount of waste materials among all solid waste types. While using ash particles eliminates waste, it also contributes desirable qualities. In this research work, the effects of Himalayan nettle leaf ash (HNLA) and bean pod ash (BPA) with molybdenum trioxide (MoO3) on the ZWK611 (Mg–Zn6.0–Y1.2–Zr0.2) alloy is examined. The as-cast alloy exhibits an α-Mg matrix, and cubic γ-phases are formed in addition to MoO3 particles. In this work, an attempt was made to choose a ZWK611 alloy reinforced with HNLA and BPA by varying weight percentages ( X  = 4, 8, 12, and 15%) with a constant weight percentage of MoO3 (5%) fabricated using spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique. The mechanical and physical properties were tested for both as-cast alloy and magnesium hybrid composites. Surface morphology and XRD are analysed to identify material behaviour. The addition of 12% (HNLA-BPA)/5%(MoO3) hybrid composite exhibits high strength as compared to the as-cast alloy.
