Abstract

In this study, Al-7Si%10B4C metal matrix composite material
was produced by adding 10 wt. % B4C in weight into the Al-%7Si
powder mixture, using powder metallurgy method. The prepared powder mixtures
were subjected to cold press under a pressure of 450 MPa and sintered for 60
minutes at different sintering temperatures (550°C, 570°C and 590°C) in an
argon gas atmosphere. Microstructures of Al7Si%10B4C composite
materials produced at different sintering temperatures were characterized by
SEM+EDS, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and hardness measurements. As a result of the
study, it was observed that Al3,21Si0,47 in matrix phase
and AlB12, AlB10, phase and compounds between matrix and reinforcement
were formed by increasing the sintering temperature. Furthermore, it was
determined that there is a significant increase in hardness values due to the
increase in temperature values.

Abstract

Bu çalışmada,
Al-7Si%10B4C metal matrisli kompozit malzeme, Al-%7Si toz karışımı
içerisine ağırlıkça %10 oranında B4C ilave edilerek toz metalurjisi
yöntemi kullanılarak üretilmiştir. Hazırlanan toz karışımları, 450 MPa basınç
altında soğuk presleme işlemine tabi tutulmuş ve argon gazı atmosferinde farklı
sinterleme sıcaklıklarında (550 oC, 570 oC ve 590 oC)
60 dakika süre ile sinterlenmiştir. Farklı sinterleme sıcaklıklarında üretilen
Al7Si%10B4C kompozit malzemelerin mikro yapıları, SEM+EDS, X-ışını
kırınımı (XRD) ve sertlik ölçümü ile karakterize edilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda,
sinterleme sıcaklığının artması ile matris fazında Al3,21Si0,47
ve matris-takviye arasında ise AlB12, AlB10, faz ve
bileşikleri oluştuğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca sıcaklık değerlerindeki artışa bağlı
olarak sertlik değerlerinde görülür bir artış olduğu belirlenmiştir.
