Description: ZA-27 alloy plays a vital role in ZA family of alloys with a high strength and pinnacle applications in manufacturing. The research papers emphasized to enhance hardness and minimize the density of the aforesaid alloy with combined addition of Al203, fly ash, carbon and yttrium as reinforcements. Hence we observed that with density was gradually decreased at 7% with 5% Al2O3, 0.15% carbon and 0.01% Yttrium addition. Similarly, further decreased density at 10% with 7.5% Al2O3, 0.25% carbon and 0.05% Yttrium. However, hardness was initial increased more than 11% with 5% Al2O3, 0.15% carbon and 0.01% Yttrium. Conversely, hardness was slightly decreased at 5% with 7.5% Al2O3, 0.25% carbon and 0.05% Yttrium.
