摘要

In this study, we successfully fabricated an aluminum matrix composite reinforced with 13 wt.% in-situ Al2BC and 15.2 wt.% MgAl2O4 particulates through a combination of liquid–solid reaction synthesis and subsequent hot extrusion. Microstructural characterization reveals that the as-extruded composite exhibits a refined matrix with an average grain size of 1.32 μm in the longitudinal direction, accompanied by a predominant <111> //ED crystallographic texture. The developed composite demonstrates remarkable mechanical properties with a low density of 2.81 g cm−3, combined with an enhanced Young's modulus (99 GPa) and exceptional ultimate tensile strength (510 MPa). Notably, the material displays significant work-hardening behavior, attributed to the effective dislocation pinning mechanism facilitated by the synergistic interaction between Al2BC and MgAl2O4 reinforcing particles.
