Abstract Nowadays, Al–B4C metal matrix composites are widely used in storage pools or
dual-purpose casks of spent nuclear fuel as neutron absorbers. B4C with 19.8% of B10 …

Equivalent amount of B (B Eq) can be used to evaluate the thermal neutron shielding
property of materials. Based on the calculation of B Eq, a novel boron carbide and …

This study aims to understand the influence of high-temperature hydrogenation treatment on
the mechanical properties and microstructure evolution of an as-forged Mg-B 4 C composite …

In this study, the effects of strain rate and thermal exposure time on the mechanical
properties of an annealed B 4 C particle-reinforced 6061Al matrix composite at various …

The continuous casting process, which is the initial process of manufacturing alloys, has
drawn significant attention from researchers. In the continuous casting process, the molten …

Deformation behavior of a rolled Al-15 vol% B 4 C composite was studied at high
temperatures, using single-tensile tests over a wide range of strain rates. The deformation of …

It has been proved that rare earth elements have a positive effect on the performance of
superalloys and steels at only trace levels, but rare earth phases are always tricky in the …

This study evaluated the mechanical properties and thermal properties of Al–12 vol% B 4 C
composite at elevated temperature strengthened with in situ Al 2 O 3 network. The …
