Abstract: | Carbon nanotube (CNT)-reinforced AZ91D alloy composite was fabricated by ultrasonic processing. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the CNTs/AZ91D composites were investigated. Obvious grain refinement was achieved with the addition of 0.5 wt% CNTs. The SEM observation indicated that CNTs were distributed near the grain boundary or around the inter-grain β-Mg17Al12 phase. No evident reaction product was found at the interface between CNTs and AZ91D matrix. Compared to the monolithic AZ91D alloy, the yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, and elongation of the 0.5 wt% CNTs/AZ91D composite were improved significantly. However, the poor interface bonding between CNTs and AZ91D matrix restricted further improvement in mechanical properties. |
