Abstract

The paper deals with influence of mechanical mixing and vibration treatment on the structure and mechanical characteristics of the aluminum alloy containing ≤ 1 wt.% of nanodiamonds (A356-C). The alloy was obtained from industrial A356 Al-Si casting alloy by means of an integrated effect of mechanical mixing and vibration. It has been shown that the introduction of nanodiamond particles contributes to improving the alloy structure and increasing its mechanical tensile properties. The structure of the A356 aluminum alloy has been refined with introduction of 0.2 wt% nanodiamonds and application of vibration melt treatment. The introduction of nanodiamonds into the melt and the vibration melt treatment enable one to increase the yield strength and tensile strength of the A356 aluminum alloy without any change in ductility.
