Abstract

Abstract

The main problems with the liquid-phase technology of carbon fiber/aluminum matrix composites include poor wetting of the fiber with liquid aluminum and formation of aluminum carbide on the fibers' surface. This paper aims to solve these problems. The theoretical and experimental dependence of porosity on the applied pressure were determined. The possibility of obtaining a carbon fiber/aluminum matrix composite wire with a strength value of about 1500 MPa was shown. The correlation among the strength of the carbon fiber reinforced aluminum matrix composite, the fracture surface, and the degradation of the carbon fiber surface was discussed.
