The invention discloses a preparation method for an aluminum-
graphene metallic composite. According to the method, (1) fluorides are added into alkali chlorides, even mixing is conducted, and then metallic or nonmetallic
carbide powder is added; (2) an aluminum sheet is placed in an
alumina crucible, a mixture in the step (1) is placed on the aluminum sheet, the
alumina crucible is covered up and placed in a vertical
heating furnace, the temperature is increased to 700-800 DEG C under the ordinary pressure, and
roasting is conducted for 0.5-5 h; and (3) a liquid mixture formed in the step (2) is poured into the
crucible and cooled for 1-2 h at the
room temperature, after the liquid mixture is solidified, a sufficient quantity of
sodium chloride solutions are added, a
solid mixture is left after filtering, the aluminum sheet in the
solid mixture is slowly grabbed out and placed on
cover glass through a tweezer, the aluminum sheet is placed in deionized water, after water is changed for three times,
drying is conducted, and the aluminum-
graphene metallic composite is obtained. The technique is simple, capable of saving energy and low in cost; and the
hardness, strength and
ductility of the prepared aluminum-
graphene composite are at least two to three times higher than those of pure aluminum materials.
