摘 要:In this work, in-situ CaB6 reinforced aluminum matrix composites were fabricated, and the microstructure, resistivity, microhardness and coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of Al-CaB6 composites were studied. It is found that CaB6 compounds can be formed by reducing reaction occurred in the Al melt: . CaB6 exhibits a hexahedron morphology and distributes uniformly in the Al alloy matrix. The resistivity of Al-CaB6 composites is 3.02*10-8 Ω·m, which is close to that of pure Al and lower than that of 6063Al/Ga composites. The average microhardness of Al-CaB6 composites can reach 1270 MPa, 259.8% higher than that of pure Al. Compared to pure Al, the CTE of Al-CaB6 composites is much lower.
