Optimization of preheating temperature for TiB<sub>2</sub> reinforcement on the preparation of stir cast LM4 + TiB<sub>2</sub> composites and effect of artificial aging on hardness improvement using ANOVA
Abstract
<jats:p>This work emphasizes the optimization of preheating temperature of TiB<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> reinforcement powder with LM4 composites, and statistical analysis for predicting hardness improvement during aging treatment using ANOVA, are illustrated in this article. A two-stage stir casting procedure was used to fabricate LM4 + TiB<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> (1, 2 and 3 wt.%) composites. The impact of preheating TiB<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> reinforcement powder at various temperatures such as 600, 500, 450, 350 and 250 °C, to attain uniform distribution of reinforcements in the matrix was studied. Optical microstructure analysis clearly shows that the optimum preheating temperature of TiB<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> powder for effective preparation of composites is 350 °C for 30 min without agglomeration of reinforcement particles. After successful preparation of composites, the as-cast samples were subjected to single-stage and multistage solutionizing treatments and then artificially aged at 100 and 200 °C to obtain peak hardness. Micro Vickers Hardness test was done to calculate the hardness of both age hardened LM4 alloy and its composites and results were analyzed. An increase in wt.% of TiB<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> (1–3%), the hardness of composites increased, and multistage solutionizing treatment followed by artificial aging at 100 °C was proven to achieve the highest peak hardness value for LM4 + 3 wt.% TiB<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> composites. Compared to as-cast LM4 alloy, 80–150% increase in hardness was observed when aged at 100 °C and 65–120% increase in hardness was observed at 200 °C during SSHT and MSHT, respectively. ANOVA was performed with wt.%, solutionizing type, aging temperatures as factors, and peak hardness as the outcome. From the results, it can confirm that all three factors contributed effectively for achieving the peak hardness. <jats:italic>R</jats:italic><jats:sup>2</jats:sup> value validates that the factors account for 100% of the variance in the hardness results.</jats:p>
