Abstract

TiB2 particulate reinforced magnesium matrix composites were successfully fabricated by adding a TiB2–Al master alloy processed via the flux-assisted synthesis (FAS) reaction into molten magnesium. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and microstructural characterization of the TiB2–Al master alloy revealed the formation and uniform distribution of TiB2 reinforcements. By stirring, magnesium matrix composites with dispersed homogenously TiB2 particles can be obtained. Microstructural characterization of the TiB2/Mg composites revealed retention of hexagonal or rectangular TiB2 particulates with the size of about 1 μm.
