摩擦攪拌成形によるZn-22Al超塑性合金と光ファイバーの機械的接合の試み

抄録

Present study introduces a novel method of producing a superplastic matrix composite. Mechanical interlocking of optical fiber with Zn-22Al superplastic alloy was conducted by using friction stir forming (FSF). The potential to develop a multi-functional composite material was experimentally examined. The results indicated that FSF can successfully interlock optical fiber and Zn-22Al alloy. Results are discussed in terms of microstructure observations and hardness distributions. In present study, FSF is applied to mechanically interlock optical fiber with Zn-22Al alloy to develop a new functional material.
