Spray Formed Al MMCs via In‐situ Reactions |
|
| Authors: | W. Wei Y. Zhou E.J. Lavernia |
| Abstract: | Reactive spray atomization and deposition processing is currently being studied as an approach for the in‐situ synthesis of Al metal matrix composites (MMCs). In the present paper, the latest developments in this field are reviewed, with an emphasis on in‐situ reaction kinetics, grain size refinement and mechanisms, and superplastic forming behavior; and future work is also discussed. |
