Fabrication of TiCx-TiB2/Al Composites for Application as a Heat Sink

View through CrossRef
Metal matrix composites reinforced with ceramic particles have become the most attractive material in the research and development of new materials for thermal management applications. In this work, 40–60 vol. % TiCx-TiB2/Al composites were successfully fabricated by the method of combustion synthesis and hot press consolidation in an Al-Ti-B4C system. The effect of the TiCx-TiB2 content on the microstructure and compression properties of the composites was investigated. Moreover, the abrasive wear behavior and thermo-physics properties of the TiCx-TiB2/Al composite were studied and compared with the TiCx/Al composite. The compression properties, abrasive wear behavior and thermo-physics properties of the TiCx-TiB2/Al composite are all better than those of the TiCx/Al composite, which confirms that the TiCx-TiB2/Al composite is more appropriate for application as a heat sink.
