Effects of Ti-coating layer on the distribution of SiCP in the SiCP/2014Al composites
A Ti5Si3 coating layer was plated on the surface of SiCP by salt-bath plating. The coating layer greatly promoted the wettability of SiC by the molten Al with the final contact angle decreasing from 94° of uncoated one to 4° at 973 K. The 2 vol.% Ti-coated SiCP/2014Al composites were fabricated by s...
