Author:Gxowa, Z; Camagu, ST; Govender, S; Pereira, MFDate:Jul 2015A powder metallurgical process was used to fabricate Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs). A 2124 aluminium alloy was reinforced with 5 and 10 vol. % of Al2O3 (40-70nm) to form Metal Matrix Nano Composites (MMNCs) as well as 10 and 15 vol. % of SiC ...Read more
Author:Camagu, ST; Govender, G; Möller, HDate:Jul 2013A method for producing metal matrix composites MMC was successfully implemented for mixing nano and low micron (“Hybrid”) sized SiC reinforcing particles in an aluminium alloy matrix. Due to the improved specific modulus and strength, MMC’s ...Read more
