Abstract
Mg-Al-Zn alloys have been reinforced with carbon fibres using friction stir processing (FSP) which appears as a promising alternative for the large-scale production of C-Mg composites. The process has shown its ability to produce sound composites with enhanced strength compared to the non-reinforced alloys. The C fabric is fragmented in short fibres leading to a reduction in grain size and an improved hardness.
