Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of casting metal-based composite materials and their preparation, and relates to an aluminum-based composite material reinforced by adding nano particles and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Metal matrix nanocomposites (Metal Matrix Nanocomposites, MMNCs) have excellent properties such as light weight, high specific strength and specific stiffness, and good wear resistance, and have received more and more attention in aerospace, aviation, military, and automotive industries. . Generally speaking, micron-sized ceramic particles are mainly used to improve the hardness and wear resistance of materials, but when the content of reinforcing particles is high, the toughness of materials decreases, which affects the application of metal matrix composites to a certain extent. Adding a small amount of nano-reinforced particles to the matrix metal can not only significantly improve the strength of the...
