INVESTIGATION OF MICROSTRUCTURAL, MECHANICAL AND TRIBOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF NITI/NB4C METAL MATRIX COMPOSITES PRODUCED BY SPARK PLASMA SINTERING

Investigation of microstructural, mechanical and tribological properties of NiTi/nB4C metal matrix composites produced by spark plasma sintering

In this paper, it was aimed to improve the microstructure, umbrella mechanical and tribological properties of composite samples according to the alloy by adding 0.25%, 0.5% and 1% nano B4C to NiTi shape memory alloy.A 3D ball mixer device was used to prepare composite powders and the samples were produced by Spark Plasma Sintering technique.FESEM/
