- Abstract
Cites a study on the effect of thermal cycling on the mechanical properties of SiCw/ZK60 magnesium matrix composite. Attraction of the reinforced magnesium matrix composites for space applications due to low density, high specific properties, high wear resistance and low coefficient of thermal expansion; Fabrication of SiCw/ZK60 magnesium matrix composite by squeeze casting with the usage of SiC whisker preform with aluminum phosphate binder; Conclusion on the strength and ductility of the thermally cycled SiCw/ZK60 composite no show of significant degradation by repeated heating and cooling from thermal cycles.
