Abstract

A manufacturing method of high toughness TiB2–Al2O3 ceramic composites by reactive hot pressing via exothermic reactions with Al, B2O3, C and TiB2 has been developed. The usage of fusible initial components (Al and B2O3) in the hot pressing procedure allowed forming dense ceramics with homogeneous fine structure at 1900°C and 20 MPa (after 8 min exposure) without any grinding of the initial powders. The hot pressed TiB2–Al2O3 composites exhibit the fracture toughness of 9 MPa m1/2, which is much higher than that of both single phase TiB2 (6 MPa m1/2) and Al2O3 (4 MPa m1/2) ceramics.
