  • Patent number: 10094006
    Abstract: The present invention is related to a method of fabricating an aluminum matrix composite by a simple process of heating a mixture of a ceramic reinforcing phase and aluminum in nitrogen containing atmosphere and an aluminum matrix composite fabricated by the same. The aluminum matrix composite may be fabricated by heating to temperatures even lower than the melting temperature of aluminum as well as to temperatures higher. The exothermic nitridation reaction contributes to the melting of the aluminum matrix and the aluminum nitride formed in-situ as a result may act as an additional reinforcing phase.

  • Patent number: 9840417
    Abstract: Disclosed is AA? graphite with a new stacking feature of graphene, and a fabrication method thereof. Graphene is stacked in the sequence of AA? where alternate graphene layers exhibiting the AA? stacking are translated by a half hexagon (1.23 ?). AA? graphite has an interplanar spacing of about 3.44 ? larger than that of the conventional AB stacked graphite (3.35 ?) that has been known as the only crystal of pure graphite. This may allow the AA? stacked graphite to have unique physical and chemical characteristics.
