Definitions

  • MMCs metal matrix composites
  • the invention relates to methods for increasing the fracture toughness of metal matrix composites via the fabrication of discontinuously reinforced laminate structures.
  • Metal matrix composites have received much attention as a means to produce products having improved properties. However, while significant gains may be made with respect to certain properties, sometimes these are obtained at the expense of other properties. For example, in the aluminum industry it is known that the yield strength and modulus of elasticity of an aluminum alloy can be increased through the use of discontinuous reinforcement additions to form discontinuously reinforced aluminum (DRA) materials. Nevertheless, commensurate improvement in fracture toughness is not obtained in such MMCs. For this reason the improvement in other properties may be unusable in components for which toughness is important.
  • DRA discontinuously reinforced aluminum
  • SUBSTITUTESHEET alloys if the yield strength, modulus of elasticity and fracture toughness can be improved together.
  • the present invention permits these properties of a metal alloy to be enhanced. That is, the present invention provides MMCs having improvements in modulus of elasticity while maintaining or improving fracture toughness.

  • Another object of the present invention is to improve the fracture toughness of a metal matrix composite without significantly decreasing the yield strength or modulus of elasticity.
  • Another object of the present invention is to improve the toughness of a metal matrix composite formed from alloys of aluminum, titanium, steel or combinations thereof.
  • the metal matrix composite comprises a stack of alternate layers of unreinforced metal and discontinuously reinforced metal.
  • the unreinforced metal is an aluminum alloy and the discontinuously reinforced metal is an aluminum alloy reinforced with silicon carbide particles.
  • a second embodiment of the invention is a method for providing a metal matrix composite having improved fracture toughness. The method comprises the steps of: (a) providing a stack of layers of unreinforced metal and discontinuously reinforced metal; and (b) applying sufficient pressure to the stack to cause interlayer adhesion of the layers and thus form a laminated MMC.
  • the stack of layers may be alternating layers of unreinforced metal and discontinuously reinforced metal. It is preferred that the unreinforced alloy forms the outer layers of the laminate.
  • the method comprises the steps of: (a) providing a stack of alternating layers of an unreinforced aluminum alloy and aluminum alloy reinforced with silicon carbide particulates; (b) heating the stack and (c) applying sufficient pressure to the stack to cause interlayer adhesion.

  • Reinforced metal, reinforced alloy, discontinuously reinforced metal and discontinuously reinforced aluminum are examples of metal matrix composites.
  • Typical composites are materials in which one of the components has very high strength, modulus or both and the other has high ductility. Some of their properties generally follow the rule of mixtures. For example, if elastic modulus is the property of interest, the elastic modulus of the composite is approximately the weighted sum of the elastic moduli of the constituents.
