Abstract
Materials with porosity from 67.5 to 82.5 % were obtained from mixtures of titanium carbide powders and ammonium bicarbonate blowing agent by sintering in vacuum at temperatures of 1300 – 1500 °C. X-ray phase analysis of porous materials found that the crystal lattice parameter decreases with increasing sintering temperature. This indicates a decrease in the content of bound carbon C/Ti in titanium carbide. As a result of a comparative study of the obtained according to bending test strength characteristics of materials synthesized from nano- and submicron titanium carbide powders, it was found that the strength have close values. Ultimate bending strength are in the range of 2.6 – 18.1 MPa. As the porosity of the material increases, the tensile strength decreases. Fracture is brittle. In the fracture of materials obtained from titanium carbide nanopowder, destruction is observed both along the body and along the grain boundaries regardless of the sintering temperature. In materials obtained by sintering submicron titanium carbide powder at 1500 °C, the destruction occurs predominantly along the body of the grains. It has been found that under the same sintering conditions, the density of the porous material made of titanium carbide nanopowder is higher than that of the material made of submicron powder.
