Effect on Microstructure and Hardness of Reinforcement in Al–Cu with Al<sub>4</sub>C<sub>3</sub> Nanocomposites

By superposition, the individual strengthening mechanisms via hardness analyses and the particle dispersion contribution to strengthening were estimated for Al–C and Al–C–Cu composites and pure Al. An evident contribution to hardening due to the density of dislocations was observed for all samples;...
