The experimental results showed that the modified shear lag model or quench strengthening model would underestimate the yield strength of SiCp/AI composites. However, the modified Hall-Petch correlation on the basis of the dislocation pile-up model, expressed as σcy = 244 + 371λ-1/2, fitted very well with the experimental data, which indicated that the strength increase of SiCp/AI composites might be due to the direct blocking of dislocation motion by the particulate-matrix interface. Namely, the dislocation pile-up is the most possible strengthening mechanism for SiCp/AI composites.展开更多

In the condition of TB=843 K, PB=16 MPa, tB= 60 min, the diffusion bonded joint, with a shear strength of 235 MPa, was obtained when a 15 μm thick interlayer was used. The results of the shear testing and SEM indicate that fracture of the joint presented characteristics of ductile rupture.展开更多

The microstructure of the as-cast and thehot-rolled composite was investigated by using TEM, EDS, and SEM, and their tensile properties weremeasured at room temperature. The results show that the ultimate tensile strength and ultimateelongation of the hot-rolled composite are 80 percent and 140 percent higher than those of theas-cast one. The TEM observation result indicates that there are high density of dislocations anddislocation tangles in the hot-rolled composite. Al_2O_3 layers in the composite resulting from thesurface oxidation of the aluminum powders were damaged to spherical particles during hot rolling.All the results indicate that hot-rolling can improve the mechanical properties of the compositeand, therefore, engineering components of the 20 vol. percent SiC_p/Al composite can be produced bysqueeze casting followed by hot-rolling.展开更多
