Abstract

The invention relates to a process for preparing a carbon nano-tube-enhanced aluminum-based composite material. The carbon nano-tube-enhanced aluminum-based composite material consists of the following raw materials in percentage by mass: 0.1 to 10 percent of carbon nano-tubes, 89 to 98.9 percent of aluminum powder and 1 to 5 percent of auxiliaries, is prepared by a process flow comprising ball-milling into powder, press-forming and vacuum sintering, and has the performance of strong strength, high density and the like. In the process, grinding is performed by adopting a horizontal high-energy grinding machine at the rotating speed of 200 to 1,000 revolutions per minute, and the composite material is synthesized in one step by a dry method, so the processes of performing ultrasonic treatment and drying on the powder are saved, preparation time is short, and problems on the uniform dispersion of the carbon nano-tubes in the aluminum-based composite material are solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a process for preparing carbon nanotube reinforced aluminum-based composite materials, which belongs to the technical field of metallurgical material preparation. Background technique [0002] Carbon nanotubes are seamless nanotube materials formed by curling single-layer or multi-layer carbon hexagonal planes. It not only has the characteristics of low density and good stability, but also has excellent mechanical properties (high elastic modulus, Tensile strength), wear resistance and self-lubricating properties, it is an ideal reinforcement, and because the volume of carbon nanotubes is much smaller than that of conventional carbon fibers, it will not destroy the continuity of the matrix when used as a metal-based reinforcement , which have laid a good foundation for the preparation of high-performance composite materials. In the field of metal matrix composite materials, aluminum matrix composite materials are widely used i...
