The microstructure and mechanical properties of the material were preliminarily investigated. Results show that the formation of liquid phase during sintering pro- motes the densification of the aluminum powders. A 97.1% theoretical density is achieved in this alloy after sintering. The material shows excellent mechanical prop- erties after extrusion and heat treatment. The ultimate tensile strength and yield strength of the extruded samples with heat treatment are 613 and 465 MPa, respectively.展开更多

The compacts were subsequently consolidated by sintering and hot extrusion. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the material were preliminarily investigated. Transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction results revealed that AlN particles were generated by the nitridation of Al-Mg-Cu compacts. The material exhibited excellent mechanical properties after hot extrusion and heat treatment. The ultimate tensile and yield strengths of the extruded samples containing 8.92vol% AlN with the T6 heat treatment were 675 and 573 MPa, respectively.展开更多
