The development of metal matrix composites (MMCs) has gained significant attention in recent years due to their enhanced mechanical and thermal properties. Among various MMC systems, the aluminium metal matrix composites (AMMCs) have shown promising potential in various engineering applications. This study presents an overview of the fabrication of Al-MgO-BLA composites using the stir casting process, a widely employed technique for producing MMCs. Aluminium has been used as the matrix material, while MgO and bamboo leaf ash as the reinforcement material to create composites. A total of 8 samples have been made of two combinations: Al-96wt%,3% MgO,1%BLA and Al-92wt% 6% MgO,2% BLA. Final samples have undergone tensile, impact, and hardness tests. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) have been performed to investigate the morphology and elemental composition of the samples. The average increase in Ultimate Tensile Strength (UTS) is approximately 56.15%, and in Brinell Hardness Number (BHN) is approximately 257% with the addition of reinforcements. SEM analysis confirmed a uniformly distributed MgO and BLA reinforcement with minimal porosity, and no significant particle agglomeration. EDS confirmed the presence of Mg, Al, Si, and O, validating the successful synthesis of the Al–MgO-BLA composite with expected elemental distribution.
