Notes:
Ti(C,N)-based ceramics that contained various carbides were prepared via pressureless sintering, to study the effects of the carbides on the microstructure and properties of the ceramics. All the systems showed good densification behavior and formed solid solutions. Impurities introduced from the milling media were sufficient to promote the densification of the ceramics. The grain structures of the systems were a function of carbide crystal structure and their affinity with nitrogen. Microhardness, three-point flexural strength, and fracture toughness of the Ti(C,N)-based ceramics were measured and determined to be 16-18 GPa, 0.7-1.1 GPa, and 3.5-5.5 MPa·m1/2, respectively.
