Abstract

An in situ Al-matrix TiB particle (10-50 μm size, ∼ 10 vol %) composite was formed by stir casting at 900°C a slurry containing liquid aluminium (2024), TiO2, KBF4 and Na3AlF6 in the weight ratio 13.5:4:1:4. The reactions among these ingredients resulted in TiB, together with small amounts of TiB2 and TiAl3.The composite (after T6 heat treatment, but no secondary processing) exhibited tensile strength 270 MPa, modulus 91 GPa and ductility 8%.
