Abstract:Hybrid intermetallic composites (HICs-aluminum based matrix, new hybrid design) reinforced with titanium nitride (TiN) and alumina (c-Al 2 O 3 ) were designed and manufactured through the innovative combined method of sinter þ forging. This method results in highly dense materials with, in general, improved mechanical properties. In the composites TiN content was varied (10, 20 and 30 wt %) but c-Al 2 O 3 content was kept constant at 10 wt%. Additionally, 5 wt% each of Cu and Ni were mixed in to improve proces… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
