Microwave rapid sintering of al-metal matrix composites: A review on the effect of reinforcements, microstructure and mechanical properties
(
MDPI AG
, 2016 , Article Review)
Aluminum metal matrix composites (AMMCs) are light-weight materials having wide-spread use in the automobile and aerospace industries due to their attractive physical and mechanical properties. The promising mechanical ...
Effect of glass on magnetic properties of microwave-processed MgCuZn nano ferrites
(
Springer International Publishing
, 2017 , Article)
Lately ferrites find applications as multilayer chip inductor (MLCI) cores. During the MLCI fabrication, the core has to be sintered with an internal electrode like silver. The sintering temperature of ferrites can be ...
Achieve high ductility and strength in an Al-Mg alloy by severe plastic deformation combined with inter-pass annealing
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2014 , Article)
Metallic materials processed by severe plastic deformation generally possess very high strength but a rather low uniform elongation, usually <5%. In the present Al-7Mg alloy processed by room temperature equal channel ...
Sustainable utilization of waste carbon black in alkali-activated mortar production
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
This article investigates the potential utilization of waste carbon black (WCB) resulting from the aluminum industry as a by-product material in the fly ash-based geopolymer composites production. Experimental study was ...
Effect of silicon nitride and graphene nanoplatelets on the properties of aluminum metal matrix composites
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
This research work aims at investigating the influence of a fixed content of silicon nitride (Si3N4) and varied contents of graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) on the physical (density, structural, morphological) and mechanical ...
A comparative study of structural and mechanical properties of Al-Cu composites prepared by vacuum and microwave sintering techniques
(
Elsevier Editora Ltda
, 2018 , Article)
In this paper, the aluminum metal matrix composite reinforced with copper particulates (3, 6 and 9 vol.%) were fabricated by high energy ball milling, followed by vacuum sintering (VS) and microwave sintering techniques ...
Effect of Silicon Nitride and Graphene Nanoplatelets on the Properties of Aluminum Metal Matrix Composites
(
Qatar University Press
, 2021 , Poster)
This research work aims at investigating the influence of a fixed content of silicon nitride (Si3N4) and varied contents of graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) on the physical and mechanical properties of Al-Si3N4-GNPs composites. ...
Structural and mechanical properties of Al-SiC-ZrO2 nanocomposites fabricated by microwave sintering technique
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
In the present study, Al-SiC-ZrO2 nanocomposites were developed and characterized. Towards this direction, the aluminum (Al) matrix was reinforced with nano-sized silicon carbide (SiC) and zirconium dioxide (ZrO2), and the ...
Hybrid effect of carbon nanotubes and polypropylene microfibers on fire resistance, thermal characteristics and microstructure of cementitious composites
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
The current study experimentally investigates the hybrid effect of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and polypropylene (PP) microfibers on fire resistance and thermal characteristics of cementitious composites. Cement mortar with ...
Deep drawability and drawing behaviour of AZ31 alloy sheets with different initial texture
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Repeated unidirectional bending (RUB) process was carried out to improve the texture of AZ31 alloy sheets. Compared to the as-received sheet with a strong basal texture, the RUB processed sheet with a weaker basal texture ...
