Fast Fabrication and Wear Behavior of Alumina–Nickel Composites
Abstract:
Alumina matrix composites containing 20 wt % of Ni was sintered by spark plasma sintering (SPS) process. The influence of sintering temperature (1400-1550 °C) on densification and grain size of the composites were investigated (heating rate: 200 °C /min, sintering time: 5 min). Wear behavior of samples obtained by SPS were evaluated in a dry condition with reciprocate ball-on-disk testing machine. The results show that the relative density and alumina grain sizes increase with the increasing sintering temperature, and the fine-grained structure (alumina size controlled in 1–2 µm) are obtained at a temperature lower than 1400 °C; the alumina grain sizes increase to 5 µm at a temperature higher than 1500 °C. The fine-grained structure samples exhibits higher wear resistance.
