Preparation and Properties of CNTs-Ti3Al/B4C Composites

Article Preview

Abstract:

CNTs-TiAl/B4C composite has been obtained by high energy ball milling and hot press sintering. These technical process promoted the solid reaction and resulted in the formation of composites comprising Ti-Al, TiC, TiB2 and B4C. The SEM images and measurement of the mechanical properties proved that the addition of 1.5wt.% CNTs further improves the fracture toughness and the bending strength of TiAl/B4C composites.
