Thermal spraying of billets and fiber prepregs for semi-solid forming of metal matrix composites

Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Ni‐Coated Continuous Carbon Fibers‐Reinforced Pure Aluminum Matrix Composites Prepared by Twin‐Roll Casting Method

“…The fabrication processes are generally divided into three main types: liquid-state processing such as pressure infiltration method, [12,25,26] solid-state processing such as powder metallurgy method, [27] and deposition processing such as plasma spraying. [28] Wang et al [29] used magnesium ingots as metal matrix and 45 vol% continuous CFs as reinforcement to improve the properties of composites by the pressureless infiltration technique. First, the YSZ coating was obtained on the surface of CFs by the sol-gel method, in which the wettability was greatly improved between CFs and magnesium matrix.…”
