Wear Behavior of the Uniformly Dispersed Carbon Nanotube Reinforced 6061Al Composite Fabricated by Milling Combined with Powder Metallurgy

Buckling Analysis of Spherical Composite Panels Reinforced by Carbon Nanotube

In this study, the buckling behavior of moderately thick Carbon Nano-Tube (CNT)-reinforced spherical composite panels subjected to both uniaxial and biaxial loads is examined. The uniform and various kinds of functionally graded distributions of the CNT are considered. The mechanical properties of the nanocomposite panels are estimated using the modified rule of mixture. Based on the first-orde...

Development and Characterisation of Aluminium Alloy Composites Reinforced With Multi Walled Carbon Nanotube by Powder Metallurgy Route

Light weight materials coupled to the need for cost-effective processing have combined to create a significant opportunity for aluminium powder metallurgy as its increasing interest. Aluminium alloy (AA 2219) metal matrix composite reinforced with multi walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) produced by powder metallurgy (P/M) technique was analysed and CNTs dispersion were traced. The micro hardness a...

B4C-Al Composites Fabricated by the Powder Metallurgy Process

Due to the large thermal neutron absorption cross section of 10B, B4C-Al composites have been used as neutron absorbing materials in nuclear industries, which can offer not only good neutron shielding performance but also excellent mechanical properties. The distribution of B4C particles affects the mechanical performance and efficiency of the thermal neutron absorption of the composite materia...

AN INVESTIGATION ON ABRASIVE WEAR BEHAVIOUR OF Fe-C-Mo-FeCr COMPOSITE PRODUCED BY POWDER METALLURGY

In this study, the effect of chromium carbide (Cr7C3) on abrasive wear behavior of Fe-C-Mo-FeCr composite was investigated. Composite, which was produced by a powder metallurgy route was containing 3 wt.% Mo, 1.5 wt. % C and 4,8,12 wt. % FeCr with the different particle sizes. In the experiments, wear resistance of samples were determined using different loads by a pin on disc wear tester. Micr...
