Aluminum-based alloy composites with high strength and low density can be used in corrosive environments. In this research, the nano-powders of A16061 alloy and A16061/TiB2 composite were synthesized by mechanical alloying (MA) method. Then, A16061 /TiB2 nano-composite bulk samples were prepared at laboratory scale by hot extrusion approach. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diff...

friction stir processing was applied for fabricating an aluminum alloy based hybrid nano composite reinforced with nano sized al2o3 and micro sized graphite particles. a mixture of al2o3 and graphite particles was packed into a groove with 1 mm width and 4.5 mm depth, which had been cut in 5083 aluminum plate of 10 mm thick. packed groove was subjected to friction stir processing in order to im...

The hot deformation behavior and processing characteristics of AZ91 alloy and nano-SiCp/AZ91 composite were compared at temperature ranges of 523 K-673 K and strain rates of 0.001-1 s-1. Positive impact of SiC nanoparticles on pinning grain boundaries and inhibiting grain growth was not obvious when deformation temperature was below 623 K, but was remarkable when the temperature was above 623 K...

background: many attempts have been performed and continued for improvement of dental amalgam properties during last decades. the aim of present research was fabrication and characterization of amalgam/titania nano composite and evaluation of its corrosion behavior. materials and methods: in this experimental research, nano particles of titania were added to initial amalgam alloy powder and the...

Composite material based on Fe3Si micro-particles and Mn-Zn nano-ferrite was prepared using powder metallurgy technology. The sol-gel followed by autocombustion process was used for synthesis of Mn0.8Zn0.2Fe2O4 ferrite. 3 wt.% of mechanically milled ferrite was mixed with Fe3Si powder alloy. Mixed micro-nano powder system was homogenized by the Resonant Acoustic Mixing using ResodynLabRAM Mixer...

During the past few decades, materials design has shifted emphasis to pursue low cost, quality, light weight, environment friendliness, and performance. Aluminium matrix composites are important class of engineering materials used in aerospace, automotive, engineering, defence and other industries because of their lower density, higher specific strength, and better physical and mechanical prope...

It is reported that the ductility and strength of a metal matrix composite could be concurrently improved if the reinforcing particles were of the size of nanometers and distributed uniformly. In this paper, we revealed that gas atomization solidification could effectively disperse TiB2 nanoparticles in the Al alloy matrix due to its fast cooling rate and the coherent orientation relationship b...
