abstract：Aluminum matrix composite joints have been produced on both alu- minum alloy and metal matrix compos- ite (MMC) substrates using powders con- taining Sic and A1203particulates. Most of the composite powders were pro- duced by ball milling, but the most ef- fective joints were produced using Os- prey composite powders. The results of preliminary joining experiments indicate that the substrateshould be preheated to 200 and a very wide bevel angle should be provided in order to obtain the highest strength joints. Silicon alloy ad- ditions to the matrix significantly im- proved strength but titanium additions had no effect. Heat treatment after spray- ing significantly improved the bond strength and restored precipitation hard- ening in the matrix. Significant amounts of Mg were lost from the deposit during sprayingwhile some free silicon was pro- duced by pyrolysis of the SiC powder; hence, further efforts must develop pow- der compositions that produce the opti- mum matrix composition in the sprayed deposit. Hot isostatic pressingof the sam- ples to eliminate porosity had only a small effect on the final strength of the joints. No significant amount of A14C3 was detected in deposits which con- tained Sic.
