ION MICROPROBE STUDIES OF REACTIONS IN SQUEEZE-CAST ALUMINUM-ALLOY MATRIX COMPOSITES
An ion microprobe with high lateral resolution has been used to study the chemical reactions at the fibre/matrix interface of metal-matrix composites. During the squeeze-casting process, the Al-Si-Mg matrix reacts with the preform made of Saffil fibres (96% Al2O3, 4% SiO2). The reaction occurs mainl...
