Abstract

Aluminum-matrix composite materials based on commercial aluminum AD0 have been investigated. SiC powder, whiskers and Al2O3 nanofibers were chosen as fillers. It was found out that the selected fillers slightly increase density and have the modifying effect on the microstructure. The maximum grain refinement (by 35.3%) was achieved in the composite modified with Al2O3 nanofibers. This composite exhibits a quasi-brittle fracture pattern and the greatest fracture work.
