Al2O3-TiC/Fe Functionally Gradient Material Prepared by SHS Casting

Article Preview

Abstract:

Al2O3-TiC particles reinforced iron matrix functionally gradient material is successfully fabricated by combining the methods of self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) with casting. The SHS products are analyzed by SEM and XRD and EDS. The results show that the grain size of the particle is round 1μm~3μm, the composition of the Al2O3-TiC/ Fe surface composite takes on a gradient distribution from outside to inside, and transforms gradually to the matrix metal. The hardness below 0.5mm from exterior surface of the functionally gradient materials increases dramatically and gradually changes to the hardness of the matrix. Key words: In situ generation; SHS; Casting; Surface composite material; FGM
