Reduced Graphene Oxide Reinforced 7075 Al Matrix Composites: Powder Synthesis and Mechanical Properties

Abstract: Abstract:Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) reinforced 7075 Al matrix composites were fabricated by electrostatic self-assembly and powder metallurgy. 7075 Al powders were surface modified by introducing a cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) membrane on the surface, which was able to form a strong bonding with graphene oxide (GO) through electrostatic interaction. During the vacuum sintering process, CTAB was effectively removed and GO was thermally reduced into rGO. Morphologies of GO nanosheets, GO/7075 Al pow… Show more

“…Meanwhile, SEM images for bending fracture surface show that wider interfacial gap is observed between uncoated diamond and aluminum matrix. The separation between diamond and aluminum is caused during the cooling process by the large difference in expansion coefficients between aluminum (23.0 × 10 −6 K −1 29 ) and carbon materials (1.0 × 10 −6 K −1 27 ). Therefore, the low density for uncoated diamond/Al composites is attributed to large amounts of wide gap around diamond particles.…”

“…The phase constituents of samples were identified by X-ray diffraction (XRD, D/Max 2500 PC, Tokyo, Japan) using Cu Kα radiation in step mode from 20 • to 80 • . The density of SCFs/2024 Al was measured through Archimedes' principle [36]. The specimens for the tensile test were prepared in accordance with ASTM Standard E-8/E8M-09 with a 10 mm gauge length.…”

“…where σ CF is the stress carbon fiber suffered in radial direction, α CF and α m is the thermal expansion coefficient of carbon fiber in radial direction (7.2 × 10 −6 K −1 [35]) and aluminum matrix (23.6 × 10 −6 K −1 [36]), ∆T is the difference between sintering temperature and room temperature, and E CF is the modulus of carbon fiber. Due to the residual stress, the carbon fiber in composites are subjected to compressive stress, as α CF is much smaller than α m .…”

“…Al matrix composites, prepared with SiC and Al 2 O 3 particle reinforcement, exhibit higher specific strength and modulus, fracture toughness, fatigue behavior, wear and corrosion resistance than the corresponding monolithic alloys. To further improve their mechanical properties, other types of reinforcements such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene nano-sheets have been recently investigated [48][49][50]. If compared to the conventional reinforcements, CNTs and graphene are stronger and provide better damping and lower thermal expansion.…”
