Metal matrix syntactic foams (MMSFs) were produced by liquid-state low-pressure
infiltration. AlSi7Mg alloy was applied as matrix material, while the filler was a set of ceramic …

Tribological behaviour of aluminium alloy Al-6061 reinforced with silicon carbide particles
(10% & 15% weight percentage of SiCp) fabricated by stir casting process was investigated …

This study demonstrates that the precipitation behavior of β-Mg 17 Al 12 phase during aging
and the resultant variation in hardness and mechanical properties of cast Mg-Al-Zn alloy are …

A novel Al4C3–SiC/Al master alloy for grain refinement of Mg–Al–Zn alloys has been
developed in the present work. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electron probe microanalysis …

Grain refinement of gravity die-cast Mg-alloys can be achieved via two methods: in situ
refinement by primary precipitated metallic or intermetallic phases, and inoculation of the …

The foaming behavior of SiC-particulate (8.6% by volume) aluminum composite powder
compacts contained Titanium Hydride blowing agent was investigated by heating above the …

Metal matrix composites with superior mechanical and fatigue properties are in great
industrial demand. In the present study, a two-step stir casting method and T6 heat treatment …

In recent years, instead of the conventional structural materials, aluminium-based metal
matrix composites (MMCs) are being widely used in aerospace and automotive industries …

A supergravity-induced separation method was proposed to recover matrix alloy and SiC
particles from scrap aluminum matrix composites (AMCs). Effects of the gravity coefficient …

AZ91D magnesium alloy has been grain-refined by SiC particles. The effects of grain-
refining parameters on its grain size have been investigated. Simultaneously, the …
