Characterization of Sintered Aluminium Reinforced with Ultrafine Tungsten Carbide Particles

Characterization Of Particulate-Reinforced Aluminium 6061 / Boron Carbide Composites

Aluminum-based metal matrix composite (MMC) materials are used in the design of ground transportation vehicles and aircraft. Compared with conventional, unreinforced alloys, composite materials usually exhibit higher strength, both at ambient and elevated temperatures, as well as good fatigue strength and wear resistance. MMCs could be produced by variety of methods such as Stir cast, Liquid In...

Optimizing the synthesis of ultrafine tungsten carbide powders by effective combinations of carbon sources and atmospheres

Article history: Received 9 November 2015 Accepted 25 April 2016 Available online 27 April 2016 Nanostructured WC powders can provide technologically attractive properties due to the fine microstructures obtained after sintering. Either W or WO3 powders are used for the industrial production of WC. In both cases, the contact area between carbon and tungsten precursors has a critical influence o...

Tungsten Carbide Fragmentation: Experimental Characterization and Numerical Modelling

Tungsten Carbide is a high density ceramic (generally found in ceramic/metal mixtures) with attractive shear and tensile strength properties in certain ballistic applications. We have determined a Hugoniot elastic limit of ~4 GPa, followed by strong hardening behavior, with spall strengths of 2.7-3.6 GPa. In addition, a series of experiments where Tungsten Carbide spheres impacted PMMA indicate...
