The effect of Si upon the interfacial reaction characteristics in SiCp/Al-Si system composites during multiple-remelting
The composite interfaces play an important role in determining the resultant composite properties, especially the development of interfacial reaction during remelting is critical to the commercialization and sustainable-development of metal matrix composites. In this paper, the interfacial reaction characteristics of SiCp/Al-Si system composites during multiple-remelting were investigated by Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC). It was found that the interfacial reactions were not sensitive to remelting number, remelting temperature and reinforcement volume fraction after a degree of reaction, and the results also suggested that the preventation effects of Si upon the interfacial reaction SiCp/Al were mainly attributed to the Si released from the interfacial reaction, while the original Si content in the master alloy also has the same effect only after a given Si content.
