Magnesium and its alloys, as the metal materials with the lowest density among structural
materials, have attracted much attention due to their excellent properties such as high …

Powder metallurgy is a group of advanced processes for the synthesis, processing, and
shaping of various kinds of materials. Initially inspired by ceramics processing, the …

The strength-ductility trade-off has long challenged particle-reinforced metal matrix
composites (MMCs). This paper presents a multi-component layered double oxide (LDO) …

This paper reports on the possibility of applying carbon nanotubes as an additive to metallic
materials, where a new phase forms in situ from the powder mixture. Multi-walled carbon …

In this study the effects induced by 0.5 vol% of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) in
magnesium based rods, obtained by cold and hot forward-backward rotating die extrusion …

The effects of severe plastic deformation (SPD) with a forward-backward rotating die (KOBO
extrusion) on pure magnesium, in the form of cold-compacted powder, sintered powder, or …

A hot pressing process was employed to produce titanium-based composites. Nanosized
TiC particles were incorporated in order to improve mechanical properties of the base …

In this paper, the microstructure and mechanical properties of two magnesium matrix
composites—a hypoeutectic with 1.9 wt% Mg2Si phase and a hypereutectic with 19 wt …

Magnesium-based composites reinforced with open-celled carbon foams (Cof) of porosity
approx. 97 vol% and three cell sizes (20, 45 and 100 ppi) were examined to characterize the …

Pulse current multi-directional forging (PCMDF) was employed to deform the 0.4 GNPs/Mg-
8Al-1Sm magnesium matrix composites (MMCs) fabricated through spark plasma sintering …
