Effects of Mold Temperature on the Microstructure and Tensile Properties of Ti@(Al-Si-Ti)p/A356 Composite Prepared via Powder Thixoforming

A novel A356 Al-based composite reinforced with Ti@(Al-Si-Ti) core-shell-structured particles (Ti@(Al-Si-Ti)p) was prepared utilizing powder thixoforming method. The effects of mold temperature on the microstructures and tensile properties of the composites, as well as the toughening mechanisms, wer...
