Abstract

TiB2/TiN nanocomposites were in-situ fabricated by spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique using Ti and BN powders as starting materials. The phase constituents and microstructures of the samples were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM), respectively. The results showed that the average grain size of TiB2 and TiN was 1m and 300nm respectively. Furthermore, high resolution TEM analysis indicated that the as-prepared TiB2/TiN nanocomposites had very clean grain boundaries, and no amorphous phase or oxide layer was observed.
