Abstract:Boron carbide (B4C) ceramic composites with excellent mechanical properties were fabricated by hot‐pressing using B4C, silicon carbide (SiC), titanium boride (TiB2), and magnesium aluminum silicate (MAS) as raw materials. The influences of SiC and TiB2 content on the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of the composites were systematically investigated. The mechanism by which MAS promotes the sintering process of composites was also investigated. MAS exists in composites in the form of amorphou… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
