Abstract
Aluminum matrix composite materials (AMCM) combine a set of properties of a matrix alloy and a reinforcing filler, which attracts great interest from researchers. For their manufacture, it is most advisable to use liquid-phase methods, a special place among which is occupied by the method of self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS), which allows to produce ultrafine reinforcing phases directly in the melt from the initial micron-sized elemental powders and exclude the purchase of expensive highly dispersed powders, as well as reduce energy consumption and time to obtain the finished product. Using this method, it is possible to synthesize the ceramic phase of TiC with particle sizes from 100 nm, not only in the melt of technical aluminum, but also in the presence of alloying elements. This technology opens up great opportunities for improving the complex properties of existing industrial aluminum alloys and is especially attractive for alloys of the Al-Si system, which are widely in demand, but do not differ in high mechanical characteristics. The presented paper presents the results of a study on the effect of silicon in the matrix alloy AK10M2H on the stability of the TiC phase formed in its melt by the SHS method.
