| Popis: | Titanium matrix composites with the discontinuous reinforcement of graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) were produced by powder metallurgy and subsequent hot-rolling. In the process of spark plasma sintering (SPS), the GNPs were well preserved at low temperature and high compressive pressure. Hot-rolling process was applied to improve the microstructure and properties of the GNPs-Ti matrix composites. The GNPs were uniformly distributed and arranged along with the rolling direction (RD). Also, the GNPs blocked slipping so that the matrix generated {10 1 1} 1 2 > compressive twining to be compatible with deformation in the rolling process with the increase of GNPs content. Tensile strength test demonstrated an excellent ultimate tensile strength that was 54.2% higher than pure titanium with merely 0.1 wt% GNPs addition. The strengthening mechanism of composites was discussed by three main strengthening factors combined with a modified load transfer model and it was thought that the composites were strengthen by grain refinement, load transfer from Ti matrix to GNPs and texture strengthening. |
