Empirical Prediction of Optimum Process Conditions of Spark Plasma-Sintered Magnesium Composite (AZ91D-Ni-GNPs) Using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) Approach
Abstract:In the present study, nickel (Ni) and graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) are considered as ideal reinforcements for Mg-9Al-1Zn (AZ91D) magnesium alloy to form metal matrix composites (MMCs) because of their excellent mechanical properties. It is essential to utilize effective manufacturing techniques to develop AZ91D magnesium (Mg) alloy-nickel-graphene nanoplatelets (AZ91Z-Ni-GNPs) MMCs. Hence, the spark plasma sintering method is used to fabricate AZ91D-Ni-GNPs composites. HRTEM, OM, SEM, EDS, XRD, and Raman spec… 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.
