Abstract

Titanium alloys have a wide application as its good toughness and strength, but these alloys have relative low abrasion resistance. However, this short coming can be addressed by fabricating titanium matrix composites. (TiB w+TiCp)/(Ti-4.0Fe-7.3Mo-5.2Cr), the composites with TiB: TiC=1: 1 but different reinforcement content have been prepared by using in situ reaction between B4C, C, Cr3C2 and titanium powders with the changing the proportions. The mixtures were hot pressed at 1300 °C, under a pressure of 20 MPa for 1 hour in Ar atmosphere and both the microstructure and mechanical properties of the composites have been investigated. XRD and SEM results show that the reinforcement content can affect both the matrix and reinforcing phase. Additionally, the reinforcement content can also influence the morphology of in situ formed TiBw and TiC p reinforcements.
