โฆ Synopsis
A pure aluminum matrix composite reinforced by ZnAl 2 O 4 -coated Al 18 B 4 O 33 whiskers was fabricated by a squeeze casting technique. The effect of ZnAl 2 O 4 coating content on the wettability between whiskers and matrix, the ultimate tensile strength and elongation to fracture of the composite were investigated. The results show that the interface wettability and the ultimate tensile strength increase with increasing the coating content. The coating content remarkably affects the elongation to fracture of composites. When the mass ratio of ZnO and ABOw is 1:30, the elongation to fracture of the composite can reach 7.9% at room temperature.

Inorganic aluminum borate (Al 18 B 4 O 33 ) whisker was employed in this study to reinforce polycarbonate (PC). The composites were prepared in a single-screw extruder, followed by injection molding. The whiskers were pretreated with tetrabutyl orthotitanate prior to compounding. The tensile, dynami
The aging characteristics, elevated-temperature strength and stiffness as well as creep deformation of aluminum alloy 6061 composites reinforced with silicon carbide (SIC) whiskers (V f= 0.20) have been studied. The peak hardness for this composite was 148 kgf mm 2 after aging for 18 h at 150ยฐC and
