Investigates mechanical properties and corrosion resistance in composite materials with aluminium borate.
The incorporation of Aluminium Borate whisker (ABOw) as a reinforcing element in the AM60 magnesium matrix is investigated in this study. The characteristic XRD patterns of the prepared ABOw revealed their orthorhombic crystalline structure. The composite materials with varying proportions of ABOw are prepared using the vacuum stir casting method. Mechanical testing revealed that the addition of ABOw led to a notable enhancement in mechanical properties, up to 15 % proportion. The composite with 15 % ABOw exhibited superior corrosion resistance compared to the AM60 alloy.
