Abstract
The in-situ synthesis of ceramic particles in Al-matrix composites gives an uniform and homogeneous microstructure. The matrix reinforcement interface is compatible with the matrix, interface is clean and provides good interface bonding. The evenly distributed sub micron sized reinforcement particles in Al-matrix enhances the strength and toughness of the composite. The formation of particle clusters and agglomerations are minimized or eliminated by suitably choosing the in-situ process parameters. Large particles and agglomerate are easily fractured where as evenly distributed fine particles are resistant to crack propagation and improves the strength of the composites. The problem encountered with the formation of secondary intermetallic Al3Ti and Al4C3 phases are addressed.
