Abstract

Kinetic spray deposition provides a new means for producing composite materials with tailored physical properties. We report on measurements of the thermal conductivity and thermal-expansion coefficient for several compositional variations of kinetically sprayed Al–SiC metal-matrix composites. As a result of the deposition process, inclusion of SiC particles saturates in the 30–40% volume fraction range.
