Microwave and spark plasma sintering processes were used to produce magnesium-B4C metal matrix composites by powder metallurgy route. Magnesium powder with 5 wt% B4C in ethanol media was blended in a high-energy ball mill for 10 min. The sintering process was performed at 500° and 670 °C using spark plasma sintering and microwave furnace, respectively. XRD investigations revealed the crystallization...
