Microstructure of alumina-matrix composites reinforced with nanometric titanium and titanium carbide dispersions

The synthesis of alumina (Al2O3)-composites having different amount of very fine titanium and titanium carbide reinforcement-particles has been explored. Two experimental steps have been set for the synthesis; the first step consisted of the pressureless-sintering of Al2O3-titanium powders which wer...
