Abstracts

EN

The composites were obtained by the Bridgman method through solidification of Al_{61}Cu_{27}Fe_{12} alloy (numbers indicate at.%). The microstructure of composites with crystal matrix and quasicrystal reinforcement was studied. The crystalline β-phase was the matrix and the quasicrystaline i-phase was the reinforcement of obtained composites. The shape and spatial distribution of reinforcement fibres were specified. Some geometrical relations of the fibres arrangement were defined. Obtained composite samples were subjected to X-ray phase analysis, optical, and scanning electron microscopy observations, chemical microanalysis and the Laue diffraction.
