Abstract
Al-Si compacts and Al-Si/B 4 C composites were fabricated by conventional cold pressing + sintering and spark plasma sintering techniques. The effects of powder metallurgy techniques on density, microstructural properties, hardness, and transverse rupture strength were investi-gated. The advantages of spark plasma sintering, which is one of the fast sintering techniques, over conventional sintering were discussed. Green densities and sintered densities were found to decrease with increasing B 4 C addition. The relative density values of the samples produced with spark plasma sintering are over 96 %. B 4 C particles were clustered at the grain boundaries of the master alloy and/or in the intergranular pores. An increase of approximately 40 % was determined in the hardness values of the spark plasma sintering samples compared to the cold pressing+sintering samples. Transverse rupture strength was increased in spark plasma sintering samples containing 5 and 10 wt.% B 4 C.
期刊介绍:
Kovove Materialy - Metallic Materials is dedicated to publishing original theoretical and experimental papers concerned with structural, nanostructured, and functional metallic and selected non-metallic materials. Emphasis is placed on those aspects of the science of materials that address:
the relationship between the microstructure of materials and their properties, including mechanical, electrical, magnetic and chemical properties;
the relationship between the microstructure of materials and the thermodynamics, kinetics and mechanisms of processes;
the synthesis and processing of materials, with emphasis on microstructural mechanisms and control;
advances in the characterization of the microstructure and properties of materials with experiments and models which help in understanding the properties of materials.
