About this document
Metal-Matrix Composites via Melt Stirring by Rafat Hossain Aunkon is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document describes research into incorporating ceramic particles into molten aluminum alloys to produce metal-matrix composites (MMCs). The researchers investigated two key issues: 1) establishing contact between the particles and melt, and 2) wetting of the particles by the melt. Using an in situ thermal method, they found that only 16% of silicon carbide particles contacted an aluminum alloy melt after 15 minutes of mixing, but adding magnesium improved contact to 36%. A large portion of the particle
