Influence of extrusion temperature and process parameter on microstructures and tensile properties of a particulate reinforced magnesium matrix nanocomposite
TL;DR: In this article, the results showed that grains of matrix in the SiCp/AZ91 nanocomposites were gradually refined while the amount of SiC nanoparticle bands was decreased with the extrusion temperature increasing from 250 to 350°C.
