Abstract
In this research work, the possibility of semi industrial production of Al-TiB2 and Al-ZrB2 composites, using reactive slag in a flame furnace have been investigated. For this purpose, commercial pure aluminum and powder mixture of TiO2 (ZrO2) , KBF4 and Na3AlF6 were used. The results showed that using a proper ratio of slag forming materials as well as proper amounts of the above-mentioned compounds make it possible to produce good quality Al-TiB2 and Al-ZrB2 compounds employing the conventional melting equipment such as a flame furnace.
