研究目的
To study the influence of laser surface melting (LSM) on the surface integrity of Al?4.5Cu composites reinforced with SiC and MoS2.
研究成果
LSM refined the microstructure and eliminated porosity by forming a homogeneous melted layer. It enhanced the hardness and improved the corrosion and wear resistance of the composites. The highest hardness was noticed in the Al?4.5Cu/10SiC/4MoS2 composite after LSM at LSE of 38 J/mm2. The corrosion resistance was improved after LSM treatment due to elimination of porosity and fine grain structure. The wear resistance was also improved after LSM, with the highest wear resistance observed in the LSM-treated hybrid composites of Al?4.5Cu/10SiC/4MoS2 at LSE of 38 J/mm2.
研究不足
The study is limited to the effects of LSM on Al?4.5Cu composites reinforced with SiC and MoS2. The optimal laser specific energy for obtaining the best surface integrity was found to be around 38 J/m2, but the effects of other laser parameters were not extensively explored.
