摘要
The carbon nanotubes (CNTs) reinforced 2024 Al matrix composites were fabricated by rotational friction extrusion (RFE).The crystal orientation, grain sizes, misorientation angle distributions and texture were analyzed by electron back scatter diffraction. The results show that the microstructure of aluminum matrix is the coarse strip, the average grain size is 48.67 μm and the large angle grain boundary content is 24.4%. After RFE, the microstructure of aluminum matrix becomes the fine equiaxed crystals by dynamic recrystallization. The average grain size of the RFE aluminum matrix decreases to 3.22 μm, and the large angle grain boundaries increases to 63.9%. With the increase of CNTs content, the average grain size of the CNTs/2024Al composites is gradually reduced to 1.97 μm and the ratio of large angle grain boundaries increases to 82.7% when the content of CNTs increases to 5%. CNTs can prevent the growth of the grains in the composites. The maximum pole density of aluminum matrix decreases from 10.8 to 4.18 and the rolling texture intensity decreases. The recrystallization textures of the composites are weakened by the addition of CNTs. © 2017, Science Press. All right reserved.
