ABSTRACTIn recent years, interest in high temperature aluminum alloys has increased. However, nearly all the data available is for simple extrusions. This paper looks at the properties of sheet made from a rapidly solidified Al-10Fe-2.5V-2Si alloy. The sheet is made by direct forging followed by hot rolling, this is readily scalable, so allowing the production of large sheet. The room temperature strength and fracture toughness of the sheet are comparable to those of 2014-T6. The high temperature strength, specific stiffness and corrosion resistance are excellent. Recently, improved thermomechanical processing and new alloys have allowed higher strengths and fracture toughness values to be obtained.

ABSTRACTPolymer infiltration/pyrolysis (PIP) processing has the potential to become an affordable means of manufacturing continuous fiber-reinforced ceramic-matrix components. The PIP method is very similar to the well-known polymer-matrix and carbon-carbon composite manufacturing techniques, the major difference being the use of a preceramic polymer in place of the organic polymer or carbon precursor. To date, the majority of research in the field of preceramic polymers has centered on precursors to silicon carbide (SiC). The Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) has focused on the development of polymeric precursors to silicon nitride (Si3N4) because its high-temperature strength, resistance to oxidation, and other properties make it an attractive candidate for many advanced high-temperature structural applications. PIP Si3N4 composites with NICALON SiC fiber reinforcement have exhibited good fracture toughness (KIC ∼ 16MPa·m1/ 2). We report here processing, microstructure and preliminary mechanical properties of two new PIP Si3N4 composites. One is reinforced with Tonen Si3N4 fiber (plain weave) while the other is reinforced with ALMAX Al2O3 fiber (8 Harness satin weave).

Improving high-temperature strength of aluminum piston material is a core technology for diesel engines to high speed and high intensity. To figure out the influence of alumina reinforced aluminum composites to the thermal load of high intensity piston, this paper study the properties of the alumina fiber reinforced aluminum composite and its protection for piston. The research shows that, compared with the cast aluminum, the high tensile strength and fatigue limit of the composite were increased by about 25% and 26% respectively. Therefore, the alumina fiber reinforced composite could not improve the temperature distribution of the piston, but it can improve high temperature strength and the operational reliability of the piston.
