Abstract:The study aims to enhance the mechanical properties of AA2124 aluminum alloy matrix composites reinforced with silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4 ) particulates, utilizing powder metallurgy and high-energy ball milling techniques. Reinforcing metal matrices with ceramic particulates like Si 3 N 4 offers potential strength, hardness, and thermal stability improvements for advanced engineering applications. AA2124 alloy powder was mixed with Si 3 N 4 particulates (5-20 wt%) and milled for varying durations to achieve uni… Show more
