Al7075 elements were incrementally added to ethanol solution under mechanical mixing. Al7075 constituents and B4C particles were blended in a high energy ball mill. Cold compacted Al7075/B4C blends were pressed at semisolid state. The effects of the size of the matrix（20, 45 and 63 μm）, reinforcing volume fraction（5%, 10% and 20%） and semisolid compaction pressure（50 and 100 MPa） on the morphology, microstructure, density, hardness, compression and bending strength were thoroughly analyzed. Experimental results revealed that the highest microstructural uniformity was achieved when large B4C particles（45 μm） were distributed within the small particles（20 μm） of the matrix phase. Composites with matrix particles larger than reinforcing phase indicated agglomerations in loadings more than 10%（volume fraction）. Agglomerated regions resisted against penetration of the liquid phase to the pores and lowered the density and strength of these composites. Composites with 20 μm Al7075 and 20%（volume fraction） 45 μm B4C powder pressed under 100 MPa exhibited the highest values of hardness（HV 190） and compressive strength（336 MPa）.展开更多

The solubility data were regressed by λh equation, with,the average absolute relative deviation 3.47%. The binary interaction parameter is 0.306 7 for the mixed solvent of oyolohexanone and cyclohexanol was determined by correlating the experimental solubilities with the modified λh equation. When the binary interaction parameter was determined it can be used to extrapolate the solubilities of succinic acid in mixed solvents of cyclohexanone and cyclohexanol at any proportion.The average absolute relative deviation was 7. 69% by using the modified λh equation to correlate the solubility data, however, the average absolute relative deviation was 8.89% by using NRTL equation to correlate the solubility data. The results show that the accuracy of the modified λh equation is better than that of the NRTL equation for the solubility of succinic acid in the 5 mixed solvents of cyclohexanone and cyclohexanol.展开更多
