The AIN particle reinforced aluminum matrix composites with 50% volume fraction were fabricated by squeeze-casting technology. The thermal expansion behavior and its response to thermal cycling were studied between 20℃ and 400℃. Compared with four theoretical models, the measured CTEs of the composite lie within the elastic bounds derived by Schapery’s analysis. Schapery’s model and Kerner’s model agree well with the CTEs of the composites at lower temperature and elevated temperature, respectively. Strain hysteresis was observed between heating and cooling curves during cycling. This was attributed primarily to the anelastic behavior of the matrix induced by matrix residual stresses.
