An Overview of the Interactions Between Reinforcements and Al Matrices with Si, Cu And Mg as Alloying Elements in Aluminum Matrix Composites: Case of Oxide Reinforcements

“…For MMSF characteristics of the hollow reinforcements such as porosity percentage and wall thickness also affect the mechanical properites 45 . Among the most reported reinforcements for AMC are carbides (SiC, B 4 C, WC, TiC) [46][47][48][49][50][51][52] , oxides (Al 2 O 3 , SiO 2 , TiO 2 , ZrO 2 , Y 2 O 3 , MgO, CeO 2 ) [53][54][55][56][57][58] , nitrides (Si 3 N 4 , BN) [59][60][61] and Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) [62][63][64][65][66][67] . For the case of syntactic foams there have been mainly reported metallic or ceramics hollow spheres, being Fe, SiC, SiO 2 and Al 2 O 3 the most used [40][41][42][43][44][45][68][69][70][71][72] .…”

Mechanical and electrochemical behaviors assessments of Aluminum- Graphene Oxide composites fabricated by mechanical milling and repetitive upsetting extrusion

“…Aluminum matrix composites are used in several industries (automotive, aerospace and military) due to low density, good weight strength, thermal and electrical conductivity [1]. Researchers used various reinforcement (Al 2 O 3 , B 4 C, CNT) to improve the mechanical properties of aluminum matrix [2][3][4]. Among all the reinforcement, graphene oxide (GO) has attracted a lot of attention due to its excellent mechanical properties, electrical properties and low density [5][6][7].…”
