Improving microstructural properties, mechanical performance, and processability of flux-engineered stir cast boron carbide (B4C)- reinforced AA6061 composites with K₂TiF₆ integration
Flux-assisted stir casting of AA6061–B₄C is limited by incomplete wetting, oxide films, and porosity. This study optimizes the K₂TiF₆-assisted process, defining a minimal effective flux window (0.5–1.0 wt%) while holding melt (≈750 °C), stirring (≈600 rpm, 10 min), and mold temperature (≈250 °C) con...
