主 题:aluminum matrix composite multi-wall carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs) ball milling mechanical properties
摘 要:Over the past decade,the interest in aluminum composites reinforced with carbon nanotubes has grown *** have been carried out to overcome problems with uniform dispersion,interfacial bonding,void formation and carbide formation of the *** the present work,multi-wall carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs) aluminum composites were ***-energy ball milling with the aim at developing well-dispersed MWCNTs Al composites was followed by cold compaction,sintering,and hot extrusion at 500 ℃.Different amounts of stearic acid as processing control agent(PCA) is used in order to minimize cold welding of the Al particles,and to produce finer *** scanning calorimetry(DSC),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),transmission electron microscopy(TEM),and X-ray diffraction(XRD) were employed to analyze the MWCNTs,the aluminum powder,and the composites’ microstructural *** hardness and tensile properties of the composites are also *** results showed 500% increase in yield stress after the addition of 1 wt% MWCNTs in Al-MWCNTs based *** ball-milling time of 4 h is found to be sufficient as excessive milling time destroys a vast number of MWCNTs.
