NOUVEAUX PRODUITS ET MATÉRIAUX À BASE D'ALUMINIUM NEW ALUMINIUM BASED PRODUCTS AND MATERIALS Synthesis of Al-TiB2 Ex-Situ Nanocomposite 41 SYNTHÈSE EX-SITU DU MATÉRIAU NANOCOMPOSITE Al-TiB2 Synthèse Ex-Situ du Matériau Nanocomposite Al-TiB2 OF Al-TiB2 NANOCOMPOSITE MATERIAL EX-SITU SYNTHESIS A.M. Nabawy, X.-G. Chen NSERC/Rio Tinto Alcan Industrial Research Chair in Metallurgy of Aluminum Transformation, UQAC . The Al-TiB2 nanocomposite was ex-situ synthesised by developed technique in which K2ZrF6 flux enables the wetting and incorporation of nano-TiB2 into aluminum melt. The integrity of the synthesised nanocomposite materials was optimized b 䁥
