Abstract

The synthesis of titanium silicon carbide (Ti 3SiC 2) from non-stoichiometric mixture of elemental Ti, Si, and active carbon or graphite powders (3Ti:1.2Si:2C) was investigated. The results show that higher-purity Ti 3SiC 2 can be attained using active carbon instead of graphite. The fracture toughness of the materials was improved by delamination, grain buckling and pull-out. An high flexural strength resulted for high-purity Ti 3SiC 2 polycrystals from room temperature to 1473 K.
