The effect of mechanical alloying on Al2O3 distribution and properties of Al2O3 particle reinforced Al-MMCs

The properties of particle-reinforced aluminum composites depend on the microstructure and evolved uniformity distribution of particles in the matrix. The distribution of Al 2 O 3 particles in the matrix and microstructure properties of varying volume fraction of particles up to 15% Al 2 O 3 particle-reinforced Al metal matrix composites produced by the mechanical alloying technique was investigated. Alloying was performed in a planetary ball...
