Production of Aluminium-Matrix-Based Composites with Carbon Nanotubes: Nanostructure and Mechanical Properties
Abstrak
The growing demand for parts offering a high strength-to-weight ratio drives the need for lightweight materials for the aerospace and automotive industries. In this regard, the presented article aims to review the production aspects of a new class of lightweight materials with a high specific strength. The aluminium/carbon nanotubes (Al/СNTs) composites are among such materials. The present review characterises the following modern methods for producing such composites: friction stir processing, powder rolling process, powder extrusion process, high-pressure torsion, infiltration into the preform, pressureless sintering in vacuum, modified stir casting technique, spark plasma sintering, and laser additive manufacturing. The results of experimental studies of the mechanical characteristics of the Al/СNTs composites obtained by different methods and observations of the nanostructure formation depending on the СNTs content are presented. The strengthening mechanisms of the Al/СNTs systems are also considered.
