Reinforcing a metal-based composite with a percentage of MgO particale to improve some of its properties and its relationship to conventional heat treatment

Abstract

This research involved the manufacture of three compounds using powdered metallurgy technology through the reinforcement of the AlNi with addition percentage (40%), (35%) and 30% (MgO) ceramic reinforce phase to compound of A , B and C respectively and thermally treated In the traditional way        

In order to study the effect of the MgO addition and heat treatment, the mechanical tests (Diametrical  compressive strength and hardness) were conducted.

In order to determine the possibility of using the models produced for the attenuation of β  particles, The linear attenuation coefficient and half thickness were examined for all models, The mechanical properties and the linear attenuation coefficient of all compounds have been improved, It was observed that the effect of the chemical composition was greater on the properties under study. We obtained the value of the compressive compressive strength of C (29) MPa before the a heat treatment, while the same compound had the MPa ( 32) After the heat treatment, in case of change in the addition ratio, we obtained the highest values of the mechanical properties and the linear attenuation coefficient of C, (29) MPa, (39) and (19.6)cm-1 respectively., And the lowest value given to the thickness of half (0.035)cm compared with (0.078) given by the A compound with the lowest mechanical properties and the linear attenuation coefficient (26.5)Mpa, (34.5) and (8.8)cm^-1respectively before thermal treatment.
