  Abstract: In this investigation, we produced Al7075 matrix composites using a stir casting method enhanced by ultra-sonic cavitation, reinforcing them with nano-Al2O3 particles. The SEM microstructural analysis confirmed the presence of nano-Al2O3 particles in all the composites, showcasing their consistent particle size and reasonably even distribution within the matrix. Optical microscopic examinations revealed that the presence of nano-Al2O3 particles, along with the aggressive ultrasonic cavitation effect, resulted in grain refinement in …
