There have been pioneering efforts over the last forty years in the development of metal matrix composites (MMCs) as a new engineering material, having improved properties, lightweight characteristics, and competitive costs compared to traditional materials. Following recent advancements in casting technology and the use of a melt stirring device by foundries, discontinuously reinforced MMCs have become prominent, where alloys are reinforced with particulates or short fibers, specifically in production aimed at automotive and aerospace applications. The ZA-27 alloy possesses high strength compared to zinc or aluminum alloys while maintaining a lower melting temperature. The primary objective of this research is to study the effect of quartz particles on the mechanical behavior of ZA-27 alloy composites. Results indicated that ultimate tensile strength, hardness, and Young's modulus of the composite increased progressively with higher weight percentages of quartz reinforcement. However, overall ductility decreased as quartz reinforcement increased. This study underscores the potential of quartz-reinforced ZA-27 alloys for applications where enhanced mechanical properties are required.
