Aluminum-matrix composite materials with shungite rock fillers

Heat-treated nano-structured shungite rocks and electrophysical properties associated

“…The obtained nanomaterials possess unique properties, for example, encapsulated FeC x particles are in the superparamagnetic state [8], similar to the nanoparticles encapsulated separately by the polymer [9]. A compound of this type can be used as fillers of new composite materials [10]. To enrich the nanostructured shungite rocks with specified components for use as a filler and modifier of composites, we investigated the processes of dispersion in liquids of different density, such as alcohol, water and tribromethane [11].…”

Metal Matrix Micro- and Nanostructural Composites (Review)

“…The research [9,10] in the field of alumomatrix composites, reinforced with widely used microsize SiC, Al 2 O 3 , B 4 C, TiC and the experience of use of the articles proved that these alloys provide high level of mechanical and service properties and may be used to produce shaped articles with casting methods.…”

“…For aluminum alloys Mg, Sn, Sb, and Bi serve as interphase-active elements, improving the wettability of the incorporated refractory particles [9].…”

Structure and mechanical properties of A356-C alloys

“…At present, there are quite a number of experimental data on the use of metal oxides (Al 2 O 3 , TiO 2 ), carbides and borides for modification of the Al-Si alloy grain structure [9][10][11][12][13]. Carbon nanomaterials (carbon nanotubes, fullerene and shungite carbon) are also widely used for the grain structure refinement and the improvement of mechanical properties for aluminum alloys [14][15]. The injection of diamond nanoparticles (DNPs) obtained by the detonation of high explosives into aluminum matrix is of particular importance [16].…”
