The motto of research is to attempt to enrich the mechanical and fracture resistance quality of AA5052 alloy composite composed by the adaptations of 0, 3, 6, and 9 weight percentages (wt%) of silicon carbide (SiC) nanoparticle and 5 wt% of chopped E-glass fiber through vacuum-assisted stir processing under 500 rpm. The metallography analysis of composite samples is analyzed and spots the good interfacial with void-less structure. The composite’s mechanical and fracture qualities enriched through the inclusion of SiC (9 wt%) / E-glass fiber (5 wt%) in AA5052 alloy composite attained the highest tensile strength, better hardness, improved elongation percentage and excellent fracture toughness, which is enhanced by 25.5, 33.8, 22, and 15 % comparable to the value of monolithic AA5052 alloy cast. The E-glass configured hybrid AA5052/SiC alloy composite is suggested for automotive body structural applications.
