Purpose: The main aim of this work is to investigate two types of intermetallics TiAl and Ti3Al as reinforcement and their influence on selected properties and microstructure of aluminium matrix composites. Design/methodology/approach: Aluminium matrix composites were produced employing the atomised aluminium alloy AA6061 as metal matrix, when as reinforcement TiAl and Ti3Al intermetallics particles were used. The powders were cold pressed and then hot extruded. To evaluate the effect of mechanical milling two types of ball mills were used: a low energy (horizontal ball mill) and a high energy one (eccentric ball mill). Reinforcement contents for both processes 5, 10, 15 % by weight. To determine hardness Vickers tests were performed. Microstructure observations were made by optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy SEM. Findings: Based on the examinations carried out one can state that the mechanical milling can produce composites powders with homogenous distribution of reinforcement particles. The mechanically milled and extruded composites show finer and better distribution of reinforcement particles what leads to better mechanical properties of obtained products. Research limitations/implications: In order to evaluate with more detail the possibility of applying these composite materials at practical application, further investigations should be concentrated on the interface reaction of the matrix and reinforcing particles during elevated temperature exposition and their influence on mechanical properties. Practical implications: The composites materials produced by this way have shown significant improvement of the mechanical properties in comparision with matrix materials. Good properties of the composites make them suitable for various technical and industrial applications. Originality/value: It should be stressed that the materials as intermetallic compounds with outstanding mechanical properties and good thermal stability were developed making them a powerful material to be used in this kind of composites as the alternative for the reinforcements usually investigated and utilized to the composites materials production - alumina or silicon carbide.
