Increasing the strength/toughness combination of high volume fraction particulate metal matrix composites using an Al-Ag matrix alloy
Ceramic reinforced metals, despite superior properties such as specific stiffness, are often considered as too brittle for structural applications. We show that despite a high ceramic particle content (60 vol.%), aluminium matrix composites can be made to exhibit a fracture toughness matching that o...
