Abstract
The effects of consolidation temperature on the development of microstructure and resulting mechanical properties of 2XXX aluminum composites were studied in an effort to fabricate composites with-enhanced properties. Type 2009 and 2124 aluminum composites reinforced with 15 pet SiC particulates were produced at four different consolidation temperatures, i.e., 560 degrees C, 580 degrees C, 600 degrees C, and 620 degrees C, followed by extrusion at 450 degrees C. The 2124 Al-SiCp composites consolidated at 560 degrees C showed the most homogeneous and the finest microstructures with the best mechanical properties, which were even better than the whisker-reinforced counterparts. All the results of the tensile tests, hardness tests, in situ scanning electron microscope (SEM) observations of the fracture process, and the apparent fracture toughness indicated that the prominent mechanical property improvement observed in the 2124 Al-SiCp was associated largely with the reduction of volume fraction of the detrimental coarse and brittle manganese-containing particles, as well as grain refinement. The detrimental manganese-containing particles that were routinely observed in the 2124 Al-SiC composites were very effectively refined by the reduction of consolidation temperature, and they rather contributed to the overall mechanical properties of the composites through Orowan-type strengthening and grain growth inhibition.
