Abstract
In this study, liquid casting process is used to fabricate AA1050/SiC composites. To increase the wettability of molten Al and improve the adhesion of particles to metallic matrix, liquid casting was selected as the fabrication process. AA1050 and Nano-SiC particles were selected as metallic matrix and reinforcements, respectively. Then, wear, mechanical properties, fracture toughness and forming limit diagram of (FLD) of aluminum composite samples have been investigated experimentally. To do this, AA1050/SiC composite strips with thickness of 1 mm have been fabricated up to eight ARB passes at 300∘C. The graining was investigated via optical microscopy (OM). The ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of samples improved to 170 MPa registering 168% improvement than the initial monolithic sample. Also, the bonding quality among the layers improved by decreasing the thickness of layers at higher number of passes (increasing the plastic strain). SEM fracture surface morphology of samples after the tensile test showed that by increasing the ARB passes, shear ductile was the fracture mode. So, deep dimples are shrinking slowly relative to the annealed sample. The FLDs’ area dropped sharply for pass 1 and then improved at higher passes as the criterion of formability. Also, wear resistance of composite samples was better than monolithic sample. Moreover, at the 10th pass, the fracture toughness enhanced to the maximum value of 33.5 MPam1/2.
