Abstract:TiC np reinforced AA7150 nanocomposites were prepared through a novel fabrication process (a combination of Vortex/Two-step Stir Casting/Ultrasonication). The effect of TiC np (0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 wt.%) and ultrasonication on both microstructure behavior as well as mechanical properties were investigated at room temperature. Microstructural studies were analyzed through optical and scanning electron microscopy for grain size refinement, nanoparticle distribution and failure analysis. Grain refinement and ho… Show more
