A metal composite material (MCM) based on an aluminum corrosion-resistant alloy of the AMg6 brand, containing 22.5 % (vol.) Silicon carbide, obtained by mechanical alloying, has been investigated. Aspects of the formation of the MCM structure based on chips and powder from this alloy are considered. The influence of the initial components on the structure of the dispersion-strengthened MCM was investigated, and samples were made from this composite material.

ABSTRACTIn this work, nanostructured composite materials Mg-Ni, Mg-Ni-La, Mg-Ni-Ce and Mg-LaNi5 have been synthesized using the mechanical alloying process. The new materials produced have been investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), TEM, SEM and EDS for their phase compositions, crystal structure, grain size, particle morphology and the distribution of the catalyst elements. Hydrogen storage capacities and the hydriding-dehydriding kinetics of the new materials have been measured at different temperatures using a Sieverts apparatus. The results show that amorphous/nanostructured composite material Mg50%-Ni50% absorbs 5.89wt% within five minutes and desorbs 4.46% hydrogen within 50 minutes at 250°C respectively. Adding 5% La into Mg-Ni composite materials reduces the starting temperature of hydrogen absorption and desorption from 200°C to 25°C which suggests the formation of unstable hydrides. The composite material Mg80%-LaNi5 20% absorbs 1.96% hydrogen and releases 1.75 wt% hydrogen at 25°C. It is observed that mechanical alloying accelerates the hydrogenation kinetics of the magnesium based materials at low temperature, but a high temperature must be provided to release the absorbed hydrogen from the hydrided magnesium based materials. It is believed the dehydriding temperature is largely controlled by the thermodynamic configuration of magnesium hydride. Doping Mg-Ni nano/amorphous composite materials with lanthanum reduces the hydriding and dehydriding temperature. Although the stability of MgH2 can not be easily reduced by ball milling alone, the results suggest the thermodynamic properties of Mg-Ni nano/amorphous composite materials can be alternated by additives such as La or other effective elements. Further investigation toward understanding the mechanism of additives will be rewarded.

In this study, graphite doped silicon was prepared by mechanical alloying (MA). MA is an effective method to manufacture silicon-carbon composite. The results show that the capacity retention ability of the graphite doped silicon by MA anode is better than silicon. The fellow result shows that LiaCb appears at the middle of lithiation process and disappear with the production of LixSiy, LixSiy produce and disappears at the end of lithiation process and beginning of delithiation process respectively. The SEI film enhanced with the increasing amount of lithium and silicon-carbon composite material was severely decomposed with the cycles increase.

In order to improve the mechanical properties of an intermetal1ic compound TiAl, a composite material of TiAl involving a second phase Ti2AIN was prepared by a new combustion reaction method. It is found that Ti2AIN (hexagonal structure) is a rod shape as shown in Fig.1 and its side surface is almost parallel to the basal plane, and this composite material has distinguished strength at elevated temperature and considerable toughness at room temperature comparing with TiAl single phase material. Since the property of the interface of composite materials has strong influences to their mechanical properties, the structure of the interface of intermetallic compound and nitride on the areas corresponding to 2, 3 and 4 as shown in Fig.1 was investigated using high resolution electron microscopy and image processing.

The addition of fibres or particles (TiB2, SiC etc.) into TiAl intermetallic alloys could increase their toughness without compromising their good high temperature mechanical and chemical properties. This paper briefly discribes the microstructure developed by a TiAl/TiB2 composite material fabricated with the XD™ process and forged at 960°C.The specimens for transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were prepared in the usual way (i.e. diamond polishing and argon ion beam thinning) and examined on a JEOL 4000EX for microstucture and on a Philips 400T equipped with a SiLi detector for microanalyses.The matrix was predominantly γ (TiAl with L10 structure) and α2(TisAl with DO 19 structure) phases with various morphologies shown in figure 1.
