Abstract
Abstract Preparation of TiC compacts and TiC/TiB2 composites with high density was attempted by the SHS shock consolidation method. Titanium, activated charcoal and boron carbide powders were used as raw materials. Density and hardness values of the TiC compacts obtained increased with increasing the C/Ti molar ratio. The maximum values of the density and the hardness were 4.72 Mg m−3 and ∼31.5 GPa, respectively. However, TiC/TiB2 composites tended to decrease the density and the hardness as increasing TiB2 content.
