Synthesis and Investigation of Magnesium Matrix Composite with Titanium Oxide by Powder Metallurgy

Abstract

The investigations of magnesium based matrix material reinforced with the TiO2 particles with various weight ratios of 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10% are presented in this research paper. The purpose of this work is to elaborate the manufacturing processes of pure magnesium with the addition of Titanium oxide through the powder metallurgy route. The powder blending was done with the energetic ball and jar mill. The compaction pressure of 650Mpa is given to improve cold compaction. The Sintering temperature of 550 oC and holding time of 30 min was used to sinter the compacts to get better results. The microstructural analysis by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for the starting powders and fabricated samples are carried out for the investigation. The mechanical properties are evaluated and the results proved that improvement in 13.8% ,17.8% and 29% for the density, hardness values and universal tensile strength.
