“…The microstructure of the samples with 1.5% h‐BN sintered at 1300°C is apparently more homogeneous (in the size and the shape of the grains) than the samples sintered at the same temperature with lower amount in h‐BN. Earlier studies reported that the presence of BNNTs favors grain enhancement in Al 2 O 3 , Si 3 N 4 , HA, and Al‐based composites . A similar microstructure has been also reported in sintered stainless steel with added boron‐containing powders .…”

Hydroxyapatite (HA), obtained from bovine bones, was successfully reinforced with hexagonal boron nitrite (h-BN). h-BN/HA composites, with BN content up to 1.5 wt %, were sintered at various temperatures between 1000 and 1300°C, in air. Well-sintered samples were obtained after sintering at 1200 and 1300°C. The presence of h-BN contributed to dense, fine, and well-crystallized microstructure. The results of X-ray diffraction analysis and FT-IR spectroscopy showed that the produced composites comprised biphasic β-TCP/HCA (HCA: carbonate partially substituted HA). High values of mechanical properties were achieved, namely compression strength 155 MPa for the sample 0.5% h-BN/HA and Vickers microhardness of 716 HV for the samples 1.5% h-BN/HA, both sintered at 1300°C. U2OS human bone osteosarcoma proliferation and cell viability showed no adverse effect in the presence of h-BN/HA, suggesting the potential use of the produced materials as safe biomaterials in bone tissue engineering. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

“…Composites manufactured by the casting route 5,6,8 are usually challenging due to the different nature of the reinforcement that may have poor wettability and agglomeration problems 13 . Some reinforcements are highly reactive particularly at high temperature, which induce unwanted reactions between components 14 . As a result this can affect the strength of final composite.…”

Mechanical and Microstructural Response of an Aluminum Nanocomposite Reinforced with Carbon-Based Particles

The present work deals with the study of some aluminum (Al) composites reinforced with metallized-graphite (MG) particles prepared by mechanical milling and powder metallurgy routes. Density, morphology evolution and mechanical performance of composites were investigated as a function of MG concentration and milling time. The as-milled powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction and optical/electron microscopy; meanwhile, the mechanical testing was carried out on cylindrical specimens prepared from powders by powder metallurgy. Evidence reveals that high-energy ball milling induce a homogeneous dispersion of graphite nanoparticles in the Al matrix; this is related to an enhancement of hardness and strength response of studied composites. The composite sample with 0.5% MG addition (in weight) reached an increase of 40% on hardness and 50% on strength (compared with pure Al sample); nevertheless an adverse effect was observed with longer milling and/or higher MG concentration.

“…BNNTs demonstrated excellent mechanical properties (ultimate tensile strength up to ~33 GPa [14]) comparable with those of CNTs, but they are more chemically and thermally stable [15]. Depending on the fabrication method, Al-BNNTs composites showed an increase in the tensile strength up to 150-300 MPa [16][17][18]. Though, it is particularly noted that the synthesis of a large amount of high quality BNNTs is still a challenge.…”
