THESE MATERIALS ARE MANUFACTURED USING PM METHODS. SEMIPRODUCTS AND COMPONENTS ARE PRODUCED BY HOT EXTRUSION AND FORGING. THEY FIND A WIDE APPLICATION IN VARIOUS FIELDS OF TECHNOLOGY:

• aerospace (fin spars, undercarriage, load-carrying structures of electrical equipment, floor plates, trusses and beams of the airframe, forged stabilizers, airbrakes and some others);

• motor industry (internal combustion engine components: pistons, connecting rods, cylinder sleeves, brake disks);

• instrument engineering;

• sports equipment (tennis-rackets, frames and wheels of sports and road bicycles and some others).

• diameter — 350 mm

• height — 800 mm

• weight — 170 kg.

BY VARIATION OF REINFORCEMENT CONTENT IN THE RANGE OF 15-30 MASS % AS WELL AS OF CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF MATRIX MATERIAL IT IS POSSIBLE TO ENSURE THE FOLLOWING PROPERTIES OF THE FINISHED PRODUCTS:

• UTS — 480-600 MPa;

• 0.2 % YS – 410-510 MPa;

• El - 4-7%;

• H_B – 1300-2000 MPa;

• MODULUS OF ELASTICITY – 90-120 GPa;

• DENSITY - 2.78-2.9 g/cm³;

• COEFFICIENT OF LINEAR EXPANSION – 13-18x10^-6 s^-1 (T=20-100^oC).

LOW CYCLE FATIGUE RESISTANCE AND FRACTURE TOUGHNESS AT 20^oC ARE AS FOLLOWS:

• s = 160 MPa,

• N > 5x10⁵ CYCLES,

• K_1c=27 MPaÖm.

RANGE OF PRODUCTS:

• bars up to 120 mm in diameter;

• strips and panels;

• tubes;

• various thin-walled complex shapes.
