The self-propagating combustion reaction 0.741Mg + 0.247Fe2O3 + 0.188Ni + 0.318Cr → 0.741MgO + Fe0.494Ni0.188Cr0.318 was applied to prepare a nano-MgO reinforced Fe-Cr-Ni composite, by reactive hot pressing (RHP) under a condition of 700°C/30MPa/2h. The densification was enabled by the low temperatures produced by the exothermic reaction. According to TG-DTA and X-ray diffractometry (XRD), the highly-exothermic thermite reaction began at about 600°C and the in-situ formation of composites comprised predominantly of (FCC) Cr0.19Fe0.7Ni0.11, (FCC) Fe-Cr, (BCC) MgO and a small quantity of (BCC) MgFe2O4. The Vickers hardness was 3.67GPa, the three-point bending strength was 112.5±10MPa, and the fracture toughness was 3.28 MPa•m1/2. The microstructure of the composite was observed via scanning electron microscopy. This indicated that the distributions of in-situ-formed (BCC) MgO phases (~800 nanometers) were homogeneous into in a matrix of a fine-grained metallic alloy phases that gather together to form agglomerates in the composite.

In this paper, in situ V2C-reinforced Cu composites were successfully fabricated by hot pressing at 750 °C under 25 MPa using Cu and V2SnC powders. Due to decomposition of V2SnC to V2C and Sn during sintering, Sn atoms entered the crystal structure of Cu. Therefore, final compositions of composites consisted of Cu(Sn) and V2C phases. Here, copper composites with 0, 5, 10, 20, and 30 vol.% V2C were designed. Their microstructures and physical and mechanical properties were systematically investigated. It was observed that with increasing V2C content, electrical conductivity decreased from 0.589 × 108 S·m−1 to 0.034 × 108 S·m−1 and thermal conductivity decreased from 384.36 W⋅m−1⋅K−1 to 24.65 W·m−1·K−1, while Vickers hardness increased from 52.6 HV to 334 HV. Furthermore, it was found that composites with 20 vol.% V2C had the highest tensile strength (440 MPa).
