Abstract:In order to research the fatigue properties of the bond zone between aluminum borate whiskers (ABOw)-reinforced composites and matrix Al-12Si alloys, specially designed specimens consisted of Al-12Si/ABOw composites and Al-12Si alloys (named C/A specimen for short) were used in fatigue tests at different temperatures. The microstructure evolution of the bond zone of C/A specimen was studied through electronic microscope analysis. The results showed that the aluminum borate whiskers could cause segregation of a… Show more
