Abstract


This work presents an interfacial characterization of the matrix/reinforcement interface of an aluminium matrix composite reinforced with Saffil fibres and alumina particles was manufactured using the PrimexTM pressureless infiltration process. Scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy were used to carry out the microstructural and chemical characterization of the composite material. In addition, a mechanical characterization was conducted by the nanoindentation technique. This research concludes that the composite presents a good bonding between the matrix and the reinforcements.
