  Abstract: The study examines Al7050 aluminum alloy composites made by stir casting and bonded by friction stir welding (FSW), supplemented with environmentally friendly Multani Mitti (MM) and cow dung ash (CDA). The study assesses the effects of different hybrid reinforcement contents (0–8 vol%) on the microstructural properties, hardness, and tensile behavior of the base alloy and its FSW joints. Tensile testing reveals an initial decline at 2% reinforcement but a notable …
