In this research aluminum matrix composites (AMCs) was reinforced by titanium carbide (TiC) particles and was produced. Powder metallurgy technique (PM) has been used to fabricate AMCs reinforced with various amounts (0%, 4%, 8%, 12%, 16% and 20% volume fraction) of TiC particles to study the effect of different volume fractions on mechanical properties of the Al-TiC composites. Measurements of compression strength and hardness showed that mechanical properties of composites increased with an increase in volume fraction of TiC Particles. Al-20 % vol. TiC composites exhibited the best properties with hardness value (97HRB) and compression strength value (275Mpa).

A comparative study between alumina added niobia ceramics and two alumina zirconia composites from nanostructured TZP (7% and 14% weight) was made. On this composites the zirconia were yttria stabilized and the alumina were submicron structured. As sintering aid a mixture of magnesia, niobia and talc were used on all samples. The sintering was performed at 1450 oC during 60 minutes. The characteristic grain size and shape of an alumina and zirconia powders, aggregates and agglomerates were characterized. The sintering ceramics were evaluated through hardness, fracture toughness and 4 point bending test. Weibull statistic was applied on the flexural results. Although the fracture toughness result from ZTA were lower, and seems to be affected by the liquid fase, the hardness and Weibull modulus were higher than alumina niobia. The grains size and the homogeneity of its distributions on the microstructure of this ceramics was correlated to these higher values. The results from these alumina zirconia composites showed a potential to apply as a ballistic armor material.

This paper aims to investigate the effect of co-milling-assisted exfoliation of graphite into polyethylene and alumina matrices on the mechanical properties of the composites. Tensile mechanical properties of composite materials based on polyethylene reinforced with graphite and graphite-derived fillers at 0–0.75 wt% loading were investigated, while hardness and flexural properties of alumina composites with 0.25 wt% loading of the same additives were assessed. Exfoliated graphite, applied at 0.25–0.75 wt% in pre-exfoliated form or in a co-milling-assisted fashion, has been demonstrated to be effective in enhancing the tensile strength of polyethylene composites. Similar enhancement in hardness and flexural properties was observed in alumina composites with 0.25 wt% loading of the exfoliated graphite. Co-milling-assisted exfoliated graphite nanoplatelets additive introduction has been found to effect a more desirable mechanical properties enhancement in the composites investigated in this study.
