Abstract

This study demonstrates the ability to consolidate pure magnesium incorporated with fine SiC particles by employing underwater shock wave derived from a high explosive. Microstructural characterization, X-ray diffraction and microhardness-measurement results of the magnesium composites produced by the axisymmetric shock consolidation are reported. The strengthening mechanism in a ball milled and hand mixed composite powders is discussed.
