Abstract
A double-layer structure of Ti coating was plated on the surface of SiC particles using a diffusion method in a vacuum reactor, which is a new method to fabricate a Ti-coating layer on the SiC particles. The phase structure of Ti coating on the surface of SiC particles was composed inside of Ti5Si3 and outside of TiC investigated by x-ray diffraction. The Ti5Si3 and TiC double-layer structure realizes the tight chemical bonding between SiC particles and the Ti coating, and significantly promotes the wettability between the aluminum matrix and the Ti-coated SiC particles. The Ti-coated SiCp-reinforced Al-Si composites are prepared by a powder metallurgy method, and express excellent relative densities, desirable mechanical properties and frictional wear resistance.
