Due to the high specific strength of Ti, materials on its base are indispensable when high-strength and low-weight requests are a chief demand from the industry. Reinforcement of Ti-alloys with hard and light particles of TiC and TiB is a credible pathway to make metal matrix composites (MMC) with enhanced elastic moduli without compromising the material’s low-weight. However, reinforcement of the alloy with hard particles inevitably lowers the value of toughness and plasticity of material. Yet, in many applications simultaneous high hardness and high plasticity are not required through the entire structure. For instance, parts that need enhanced wear resistance or resistance upon ballistic impact demand high hardness and strength at the surface, whereas their core necessitates rather high toughness and ductility. Such combination of mechanical properties can be achieved on layered structures joining two and more layers of different materials with different chemical composition and/or microstructure within each individual layer. Multi-layered structures of Ti-6Al-4V alloy and its metal-matrix composites (MMC) with 5 and10% (vol.) of TiC and TiB were fabricated in this study using blended elemental powder metallurgy (BEPM) of hydrogenated Ti. Post-sintering hot deformation and annealing were sometimes also employed to improve the microstructure and properties. Structure of materials were characterized using light optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, electron backscattered diffraction, x-ray microscopy, tensile and 3-point flexural tests. The effect of various fabrication parameters was investigated to achieve desirable microstructure and properties of layered materials. Using optimized processing parameters, relatively large multilayered plates were made via BEPM and demonstrate superior anti-ballistic performance compared to the equally sized uniform Ti-6Al-4V plates fabricated by traditional ingot and wrought technology.

Purpose Aluminium is the most preferred material in engineering structural components because of its excellent properties. Furthermore, the properties of aluminium may be enhanced through metal matrix composites and an in-depth investigation on the evolved properties is needed in view of metallurgical, mechanical and tribological aspects. The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of TiC addition on the tribological behavior of aluminium composites. Design/methodology/approach Aluminium metal matrix composites at different weight percentage of titanium carbide were produced through powder metallurgy. Produced composites were subjected to sliding wear test under dry condition through Taguchi’s L9 orthogonal design. Findings Optimal process condition to achieve the minimum wear rate was identified though the main effect plot. Sliding velocity was identified as the most dominating factor in the wear resistance. Practical implications The production of components with improved properties is promoted efficiently and economically by synthesizing the composite via powder metallurgy. Originality/value Though the investigations on the wear behavior of aluminium composites are analyzed, reinforcement types and the mode of fabrication have their significance in the metallurgical and mechanical properties. Thus, the produced component needs an in-detail study on the property evolution.
