Combustion Synthesis of TiB2-TiC Ceramic

Article Preview

Abstract:

TiB2-TiC multiphase ceramics were prepared through altering the molar ratio of Mg and C and leached with suitable acid by the combustion synthesis reaction of Mg, C, TiO2 and B2O3. The samples were investigated by XRD and SEM, and the results showed the diameter of the TiB2 was 1.5μm and the shape of the TiC was irregular spherical particles. The diameter and the proportion of the TiB2 were increased with the increase of Mg powder. The formation mechanism of TiB2 has been studied. The optimized proportioning of the molar ratio of Mg and C was 3:2.
