From: A novel Al matrix composite reinforced by nano-AlNp network

The fracture characteristic of 16.4% AlNp/Al composites at 350 °C.
(a) The sketch map of the voids initiating at interface between AlNp and the Al matrix mainly because of the discordant deformation speed at high temperature. (b,c) Cross-sectional observation of fracture helps to find out the trace of crack. (d) The fracture surface shows AlNp network is the main load-bearing structure.
