Popis: | Fly ash-particulated (FA) aluminium metal matrix composites and boric acid was used for the production of foam using powder metallurgy technology. Using boron products such as boric acid as a pore forming agent is different from the ones used in literature. Aluminium–FA composites containing 1 wt.% and 10 wt.% of FA were prepared and mixed with 50 wt.% boric acid and then compacted. The compacts prepared at 630 MPa were sintered in argon atmosphere at 550 °C for 3 h. The microstructure characteristic and compressive behaviour of the foam at strain rate of 10−3 s−1 were investigated. The morphology and chemical composition of the phases in the composite samples were investigated using Scanning Electron Microscopy, Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Aluminium composite foam samples with ~40% porosity were successfully produced with the 0.6 mm mean cell size. Strength of the sintered compacts increased with increasing weight per cent of FA under the present experimental condi... |
