(Conventional technology) Ceramic short fiber reinforced aluminum matrix composite materials have high specific strength and specific modulus, as well as excellent wear resistance and heat resistance, and are expected to be used in the future as structural materials for aerospace, etc. . However, this composite material has poor workability9, and there is a need for the development of a molding method that can mold a plate-like material into a complex-shaped structure. In particular, the superplastic forming method, which is suitable for mass production, is considered to be a forming method that can meet these demands.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) In the example (1), since the superplastic temperature region is above the solidus line, the matrix partially becomes a liquid phase, causing defects such as holes and cavities. It is thought that the mechanical properties deteriorate after superplastic deformation. In (2), the strain rate range during superplastic deformation is 1
The processing speed is about 0-4 (1/sec), which is slow, making it unsuitable for mass production of mechanical parts made of this composite material, and making it difficult to reduce manufacturing costs. In addition, as a common problem with the above composite materials, processing heat treatment (
Solution treatment - aging treatment, warm rolling and recrystallization treatment) are required. This complicates the manufacturing process.

Therefore, in order to mass produce mechanical parts from composite materials, it is considered important to invent a superplastic processing method that provides conditions suitable for mass production of composite materials manufactured by a simplified method. The present inventors thought that the growth of aluminum alloy crystal grains could be suppressed by uniformly and appropriately dispersing short ceramic fibers in fine aluminum alloy powder.

In other words, without adding the complicated heat treatment mentioned above,
As a result of repeated research on the high-temperature deformation behavior of the composite material manufactured using a simple powder metallurgy method, it was found that by appropriately limiting the temperature and deformation rate, the amount of deformation could be reduced to 20% in the -axial tensile test.
It has been found that this material exhibits high ductility exceeding 0%.

Moreover, in this case, the superplastic temperature region is below the solidus line, so the parent phase is in a solid state, and the superplastic strain rate region is also 10-
'(1/f#) and a significantly high deformation rate.

In this way, the development of high ductility is thought to be due to the grain boundaries between fine crystal grains. The reason why fine crystal grains were obtained is that in addition to the effect of suppressing the growth of the crystal grains of the short fiber reinforcement, dislocations tend to accumulate around the short fiber reinforcement, and the entire matrix becomes a state of high dislocation density. It is thought that dynamic recrystallization occurred.

In addition, only slight grain growth was observed even after deformation, and it is thought that the grain growth suppressing effect of the reinforcing material worked effectively even during deformation, suppressing grain growth.

The composite material can reduce the processing load by appropriately limiting the temperature and deformation rate, and the deformation rate is significantly faster than that of conventional superplastic aluminum alloys, making it suitable for plastic working.

(Means for Solving the Problems) This invention was completed based on the above knowledge obtained by the inventors. Its composition is made by sintering a mixed powder of silicon nitride short fibers and aluminum alloy powder under pressure in a vacuum, and then compressing it in the air, hot extrusion processing, and heat treating it to create a composite material with fine crystal grains. Manufacture. The matrix of this composite material is deformed under the action of stress in the superplastic temperature region below the solidus line, allowing complex-shaped parts and structures with superior mechanical properties to be produced at higher strain rates than conventional aluminum alloys. It involves precision hot forming of objects.
