Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing a metal matrix composite material by using a 3D printing space structure, and belongs to the technical field of metal matrix composite materials. Background technique [0002] In mining, building materials, electric power and other fields, the crushing of materials is an important production process, which requires a large amount of wear-resistant parts. There is not much room for performance improvement of traditional wear-resistant materials such as high manganese steel and high-chromium cast iron. The development of new high-performance wear-resistant materials is of great significance to our country. In recent years, ceramic particle (p) reinforced steel matrix composites (MMCs), as a new type of high-performance wear-resistant material, are gradually being used in the industrial field. Toughening the space structure of MMCs has been proved to be an effective measure to improve its plasticity and toug...
