Silicon carbide particles reinforced aluminum matrix composite (abbreviated as SiCp/Al) offers excellent performance such as high specific strength and stiffness, which make it widely used in aerospace, automobile and other fields, but it is hard to be manufactured. An aluminum matrix composite reinforced with 45% volume fraction of 5μm silicon carbide particles in an A12 aluminum matrix was experimental studied by ultrasonic vibration-assisted scratch (UVAS) and traditional scratch. Cutting forces and surface topography were measured by Kistler dynamometer and SEM. The experimental results showed that the cutting forces fluctuated obviously and the axial force was larger than the tangential force during both UVAS process and traditional scratch process. Average cutting forces of UVAS process were less than those of traditional scratch process. At the same time, small chips of SiC and high surface quality were observed in the scratch surface of UVAS. These indicate that ultrasonic vibration-assisted method plays an important and effective role in reducing cutting forces and improving surface quality.

Aluminum matrix composites reinforced by silicon carbide particles (SiCp/Al) were prepared using microwave sintering. The hardness, bending strength and compression strength of sintered composites had been measured. The results showed that SiCp/Al composite can be sintered by microwave in very short time. The oxidation or plating copper in silicon carbide surface can improve the mechanical properties of composites.

ABSTRACTThe aim of this research is to study the mechanical properties and wear behavior of aluminum composite material (AMCs) reinforced with silicon carbide particles with varying percentages (0, 3, 6 and 9) wt. %. These composites samples were prepared by stir casting process. Tensile strength, compression strength, hardness and wear resistance of the prepared composites were analyzed. The result showed that adding SiC reinforced in Al matrix increased tensile strength, compression strength, wear resistance and hardness with increased wt. percentage of silicon carbide reinforced AMCs. Maximum tensile and compression strength and hardness showed at 9 wt. percentage SiC reinforced AMCs.
