Abstract
Composites of aluminium metal and iron caloium borate glasses were prepared using powder metallurgy techniques. With all glass volume fractions, 0–90%, the aluminium formed the continuous matrix making the electrical conductivity of the composites metallic. The optimum mechanical properties were 250 VHN, 45 kg/mm2 compressive strength and 36 kg/mm2 tensile strength. It is concluded that these glass metal composites offer interesting possibilities due to their physical and mechanical properties.
