Results show that Ti and A1 melt can form TiA13 spontaneously, which is considered as a reinforced phase of the matrix. Measurements such as XRD, SEM, and EDX were performed to characterize the as-synthesized samples, and results confirmed the formation of TiA13 in aluminum matrix composites. The reactive kinetics was controlled by three main factors, which are the system temperature, particle size of Ti, and the thickness of external diffusion layer.展开更多
