Heat flow, thermal analysis and structural simulation through thin film of Synthesized Al2O3-ZrO2 nanocomposite
Main Article Content
Abstract
Nanocomposite has found application in the modern field of technology based on its specific properties. A nanocomposite of alumina and zirconia (Al2O3-ZrO2) was synthesized using a simple Sol-Gel technique and sintered at different temperatures from 500 ºC to 1100 C with an interval of 200 ºC. A thin film was deposited on a 1 mm thick aluminum sheet. The structural simulation of the deposited thin film was analyzed using ANSYS. Particle size and phase are verified by XRD. DSC-TGA (SDT) analysis was used to determine the 1100 ºC of Al2O3/ZrO2 nanocomposite for thin film by dipping method. SEM Material morphology of the synthesized material performed by the SEM method in particle size 90-100nm.
