Mechanical performance of alumina reinforced with NbC, TiC and WC

Mechanical performance of alumina reinforced with NbC, TiC and WC

The incorporation of refractory hard particles in Al2O3-based composites may inhibit grain growth of the matrix, which could significantly contribute to mechanical performance of the composite. The present study aimed to investigate the potential use of NbC as alumina reinforcing material, as an alt...
