Abstract
1. The temperature at which the porous carbide skeleton of a Ferro-TiC alloy is sintered plays an important part in the evolution of the structure and properties of the alloy. 2. The higher the sintering temperature and the starting porosity of the carbide skeleton, the greater is the sintering shrinkage, which must be allowed for the design of casting molds for thermoplastic slips. 3. Use of carbide skeletons sintered at a high temperature, e.g., 2000° C, ensures strain-free infiltration with an even distribution of carbides, enabling nonporous alloys to be produced possessing high strength properties. 4. The disappearance of the ledeburitic eutectic in R18 and R9K5 steels after the infiltration of porous carbide skeletons sintered at 1500° C is linked with depletion of the alloying elements in the steels and their dissolution in the titanium carbide.
