Fabrication of Al/AlN in-situ nanocomposite through planetary ball milling and hot extrusion of Al/BN: Microstructural evaluation and mechanical behavior

Abstract: In this study, Al/AlN in-situ nanocomposites were fabricated using Al/BN as the starting composite powders. The impact of adding hexagonal boron nitride (BN) to the Al matrix of commercial purity on the microstructure and mechanical behavior of the fabricated in-situ nanocomposites was investigated. Samples including 1, 2, and 4 wt.% boron nitride nanoparticles were produced by planetary ball milling of the composite powders and a post-process of hot extrusion. Scanning transmission electron microscopy reveale… Show more

“…In the as-cast material, a relatively coarse struc-ture was observed in the composite material, and the composite material after HE was considerably refined to form a dense structure with a regular arrangement. The nano-AlN benefits from the arranged uniform and refined microstructures in terms of improved strength [30,31]. In the process of creating high-energy ball milling powder, we control the cold-welding phenomenon of the powder by adding alcohol as a process control agent, which can improve the ball milling efficiency and avoid the problem of nano-AlN agglomerating during ball milling.…”

“…It is well recognized that BN decomposed and dissolved in the Al matrix during high energy ball milling. Then, the possible AlN and AlB 2 as the in-situ phases are generated during a heating state in the Al matrix [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. Due to presence of in-situ particles in matrix, the microstructural observation and mechanical behavior of the in-situ Al/BN nanocomposite should be investigated by high resolution transmission electron microscopy.…”

“…As an important part of metal matrix composites, aluminum matrix composites (AMCs) provide a combination of low density, high strength, excellent wear resistance and corrosion resistance for automotive industries and aerospace applications [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ]. Particularly, aluminum matrix composites with different microstructural design by in situ fabrication such as melting methods and spark plasma sintering (SPS) are popular owing to their advantages [ 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 ]. However, the purpose is always to obtain a uniform distribution of reinforcement regardless of which processing method.…”
