Abstract
The paper describes the production of aluminum matrix composite materials containing metallic glass particles of the composition Fe66Cr10Nb5B19 by successively applying mechanical activation of the initial powders in a planetary mill and spark sintering. During sintering at 540 °C, the metallic glass particles are completely or partially converted into the intermetallic compound Fe4Al13. Composite materials sintered from a mixture of Al + 20 (vol.) % Fe66Cr10Nb5B19 are characterized by anisotropy of mechanical properties: the yield strength in compression, microhardness and deformation at failure in the pressing direction during sintering are 550 MPa, 200 HV and 14.2%, respectively, while in the direction perpendicular to the pressing direction, these characteristics are 740 MPa, 250 HV and 2.2%
