Synergetic grain refinement and ZrB2 hardening in in-situ ZrB2/AA4032-type composites by ultrasonic assisted melt treatment

In this work, the effects of ultrasonic treatment on in-situ ZrB2 particle-reinforced AA4032-based composites were studied. The composites were synthesized from Al–K2ZrF6–KBF4 system via an in-situ melt reaction. The phase composition, macrostructure characteristics, hardness and tensile properties...
