“…composites [23][24][25]. On the other hand, the effect of microstructural modifications, such as particle shape and interparticle distance, induced by mechanical treatments, like ball milling, as well as the influence of the consolidation method on the properties of Al-based MMCs have received relatively little attention.…”

Al matrix composites reinforced with 40 vol% Fe50.1Co35.1Nb7.7B4.3Si2.8 glassy particles have been produced by powder metallurgy, and their microstructure and mechanical properties have been investigated in detail. Different processing routes (hot pressing and hot extrusion) are used in order to consolidate the composite powders. The homogeneous distribution of the glassy reinforcement in the Al matrix and the decrease of the particle size are obtained through ball milling. This has a positive effect on the hardness and strength of the composites. Mechanical tests show that the hardness of the hot pressed samples increases from 51-155 HV, and the strength rises from 220-630 MPa by extending the milling time from 1-50 h. The use of hot extrusion after hot pressing reduces OPEN ACCESSMetals 2015, 5 670 both the strength and hardness of the composites: however, it enhances the plastic deformation significantly.

“…Al-based metal matrix composites (AMCs) are very attractive for lightweight applications such as aerospace, military and transport sectors due to high specific strength, good fatigue properties and wear resistance [1][2][3][4][5]. In addition, AMCs offer the possibility to tailor their properties to meet specific requirements [2][3][4][5][6].…”

Abstract:The effect of Mg-7.4%Al reinforcement particle size on the microstructure and mechanical properties in pure Al matrix composites was investigated. The samples were prepared by hot consolidation using 10 vol.% reinforcement in different size ranges, D, 0 < D < 20 µm (0-20 µm), 20 ≤ D < 40 µm (20-40 µm), 40 ≤ D < 80 µm (40-80 µm) and 80 ≤ D < 100 µm (80-100 µm). The result reveals that particle size has a strong influence on the yield strength, ultimate tensile strength and percentage elongation. As the particle size decreases from 80 ≤ D < 100 µm to 0 < D < 20 µm, both tensile strength and ductility increases from 195 MPa to 295 MPa and 3% to 4% respectively, due to the reduced ligament size and particle fracturing. Wear test results also corroborate the size effect, where accelerated wear is observed in the composite samples reinforced with coarse particles.

“…The compressive strength of Ni-Nb-Ta amorphous alloy-reinforced Al-MMC synthesized by the squeeze infiltration technique is reported by Lee et al [29]. Zheng et al [30] investigated the microstructure and mechanical properties of Al-2024 and Al-2024-Fe composites synthesized by mechanical milling and hot extrusion. They observed a significant increase in the mechanical properties due to the grain refinement and the uniform distribution of the Fe-based metallic glass particles.…”

Aluminum metal matrix composites (AMMCs) are light-weight materials having wide-spread use in the automobile and aerospace industries due to their attractive physical and mechanical properties. The promising mechanical properties of AMMCs are ascribed to the size and distribution of the reinforcement, as well as to the grain size of the matrix. Microwave rapid sintering involves internal heating of aluminum compacts by passing microwave energy through them. The main features of the microwave sintering technique are a short processing time and a low energy consumption. The aim of this review article is to briefly present the microwave rapid sintering process and to summarize the recent published work on the sintering and properties of pure Al and Al-based matrix composites containing different reinforcements.
