Purpose: The main aim of this work is to investigate microstructure of EN AW6061 matrix composites with Ti3Al intermetallics reinforcement produced by powder metallurgy techniques and hot extrusion. Design/methodology/approach: Microstructure observations of 5 mm diameter extruded bars were made by light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. Findings: Extruded composites are characterized by a very homogeneous distribution of intermetallic particles and with good cohesion at the matrix /particle interfaces. Research limitations/implications: Contributes to research on microstructural characteristics of aluminium alloy matrix composite material reinforced with intermetallics phase. Practical implications: Conducted research shows that applied technology of composite materials production allows to obtain very good microstructural characteristics. Originality/value: New approach for production of composite materials with homogeneous microstructure.
