Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers several aspects of the synthesis of composites by the pressureless infiltration technique. It describes the methods used to obtain green preforms, such as cold pressed and hot sintering, describing the heating time, load, and time required for pressing the preforms. Additionally, wettability phenomena, which is directly related on infiltration, is extensively described. Wettability process and interfacial reactions are analyzed in many ceramic-metal systems prior to fabricate the composites. A complete description of fabrication processes for Metal Matrix Composites is included. An extensive section on structural, chemical, and mechanical characterization of composites fabricated with aluminum and magnesium alloys as matrices reinforced with titanium carbide (TiC), aluminum nitride (AlN), silicon carbide (SiC) and alumina (Al2O3) is included. Relevant techniques for joining composites, such as welding and brazing are addressed. As well as issues pertaining to the corrosion and wear of composites are discussed as well. Corrosion behavior of some composites exposed to aqueous media was analyzed. Corrosion of composites using TiC and SiC like reinforcement and Al, Ni, and some Al-Cux, Al-Mgx and Al-Cu-Li alloys like matrix is discussed extensively. The structural characterization techniques addressed include: scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), optical microscopy (OM), differential thermal analysis (DTA), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and thermogravimetry analysis (TGA). Mechanical testing including hardness, elastic modulus, tension tests, and impact tests were used in the characterization of composites. Theoretical models for prediction of some mechanical properties are included too.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aluminum alloy composites reinforced with silicon carbide whiskers were prepared by liquid-phase hot pressing of aligned whisker-powder bodies. Biaxial (x-y) alignment was obtained by filtering a liquid slurry. Uniaxial alignment was obtained by performing the filtration in a magnetic field, extruding the whisker-powder mixture suspended in solid camphene, or extruding the hot-pressed composite near the matrix melting temperature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several metals and alloys were examined for reinforcement with alpha SiC whiskers. High-temperature matrices were found to degrade the whiskers significantly. Aluminum-silicon alloys and magnesium and its alloys were found compatible at up to their respective solidus temperatures. Hypoeutectic aluminum-silicon alloy composites were investigated in detail. A linear relationship between whisker loading up to about 35 v/o tensile strength was established with reproducible consistency in aluminum -2.5 w/o silicon matrix composites. Classified +60 mesh-length whiskers and 10 microns matrix powder yielded notably higher tensile properties. At 38 v/o, tensile strengths of 68,000 psi were obtained. In 25 v/o whisker composites, strengths of about 13,000 psi at 500 C were recorded consistently. Heat treatable aluminum alloy composites yielded erratic results due to an uncontrolled aging response of the matrix during conventional heat treatments. (Author).

This book was released on 1988 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This program deals with determining factors that influence strength, ductility, fracture toughness, and elongation to failure in Silicon Carbon Whisker/Aluminum alloy composites. Specifically, a microstructural study is being made in an attempt to define extrinsic and intrinsic factors that control fracture and thus influence properties. One of the more important products produced by ACMC from SiCw/Al composites has been the rolled sheet. The response of the material to secondary processing and thermo-mechanical treatment is of utmost importance with respect to material quality. The present study emphasizes microstructural-mechanical property characterization of the rolled material (JES).

This book was released on 1967 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A technique was developed for orienting silicon carbide whiskers in a metal matrix which involves the preparation of a liquid slurry of the whiskers and matrix metal powder followed by the extrusion of the slurry through a fine orifice die. The technique was further developed for the fabrication of aluminum alloy-silicon carbide whisker composites with oriented whiskers. The fabrication of such shapes as strip, tubes, bushings, and cones with oriented whiskers was demonstrated. Mechanical properties of the aluminum alloy-silicon carbide whisker composites were measured at room temperature and at 204 to 427C. The effect of silicon carbide whisker loading, whisker type, and metal powder particle size was studied. (Author).

Book excerpt: The concept of reinforcing a material by the use of a fiber is not a new one. The Egyptian brick layer employed the same principle more than three thousand years ago when straw was incorporated into the bricks. More recent examples of fiber reinforced composites are steel-reinforced concrete, nylon and rayon cord reinforced tires, and fiberglass reinforced plastics. In the last several years considerable progress has been made on new composite structures particularly utilizing boron (on tungsten substrate) fibers in various matrices. Many of these advances have been reviewed recently by P. M. Sinclair1 and by Alexander, Shaver, and Withers.2 An excellent earlier survey is available by Rauch Sutton, and McCreight.3 Boron-reinforced epoxy composites are being fabricated and tested as jet engine components, fuselage components, and even as a complete aircraft wing because of the tremendous gain in experimentally demonstrated properties such as modulus, strength, and fatigue resistance, particularly on a weight normalized (e.g., strength/density) basis. Other than glass/epoxy and boron/ epoxy composites and perhaps boron/aluminum, the systems now under study are in the early stages of research and development. These include other boron/metal composites, graphite/polymer, graphite/metal, graphite/graphite, alumina/metal, and aligned eutectic (directionally, solidified) combinations. As Sinclair points out, designers are wary about filamentary composites becausethere is little background information and scant experience.
