High-resolution transmission electron microscopy （HRTEM） characterization showed that primary TiB2 nano particles and TiB whiskers were formed by in-situ reaction between Ti and B in the liquid copper. The formation of TiB whiskers within the melt led to coarsening of TiB2 particles. Primary TiB2 particles were dispersed along the grain boundaries and hindered grain growth at high temperature, while the secondary TiB2 particles were formed during heat treatment of the alloy by diffusion reaction of solute titanium and boron inside the grains. Electrical conductivity and hardness of the composite were evaluated during heat treatment. The results indicated that the formation of secondary TiB2 particles in the matrix caused a delay in hardness reduction at high temperature. The electrical conductivity and hardness increased up to 8 h of heat treatment and reached 33.5% IACS and HV 158, respectively.展开更多

As high temperature due to hypervelocity impact can make the dislocation climb, a bunch of vacancies were generated and then gathered to form vacancy slice, finally formed dislocation rings. In addition, by climbing, edge dislocations rearranged themselves into wall vertical with slip plane, which finally forms sub grain boundary. Moreover, big angle grain boundaries were observed, which demonstrates that dynamic recrystal grains were formed in impacted TiB2 particles. As a result, deformation behavior of TiB2 particles in 65 vol.% TiB2/Al composite under hypervelocity impact includes generation of dislocation, slip and climb of dislocation, and dynamic recrystallization.展开更多
