摘要
In this paper, aluminium-based (Al6061) composites with 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10 vol % of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are investigated. The composites are fabricated by high-energy ball milling, cold-compacting at room temperature under compacting pressures of 400-1600 MPa, and sintering at 620 degrees C in an argon gas atmosphere. Thereafter, the hardness and microstructure of MWCNTs/Al6061 composites are examined. Further, to improve the relative density and hardness level of the complex material, open-die forging is performed after cold-compacting under 1 GPa pressure at room temperature and sintering at 620 degrees C. The open-die forging parameters include 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10 vol % MWCNTs/Al6061, and Al6061. The experimental results show that the mechanical properties of the composites are significantly superior to that of the Al6061 alloy after undergoing cold-compacting, sintering, and open-die forging.
