Abstract

Composites have been the most prominent incipient materials in a variety of industries over the past decades. The present work mainly investigates the influence of the SiC particulate (SiCp) weight percentage on AA6063/SiCp metal matrix composites extrusion and, it has been evaluated in extruded MMC billets for enhancing the billet quality. Graphite lubricants are used to decrease the friction between the die and the billet surface. Subsequently, the friction factor is theoretically determined and experimentally validated. It was concluded that SiCp concentration is the predominant factor influencing the extrusion load and friction factor. As a result, the extrusion load was increased with an increase in SiCp percentage. Furthermore, the experimental results were compared and validated by simulation analysis. The extruded billet surfaces were exhibited by a scanning electron microscope.

SiCp体积百分比对AA6063/SiCp MMC挤压过程的影响:实验、理论和模拟分析

在过去的几十年里，复合材料一直是各种行业中最突出的初期材料。本工作主要研究了SiC颗粒（SiCp）重量百分比对AA6063/SiCp金属基复合材料挤出的影响，并在挤出的MMC坯料中对其提高坯料质量进行了评价。石墨润滑剂用于减少模具和坯料表面之间的摩擦。随后，对摩擦系数进行了理论确定和实验验证。结果表明，SiCp浓度是影响挤压载荷和摩擦因数的主要因素。结果，挤压载荷随着SiCp百分比的增加而增加。并通过仿真分析对实验结果进行了比较和验证。通过扫描电子显微镜展示了挤出的坯料表面。
