The results show that the Vickers hardness at room temperature and the compressive yield strength from room temperature to 1000℃ of the composites increase with increasing volume fraction of the strengthening phase. Especially, the yield strength of NiAl-20TiB2 was approximately twice as high as that of unreinforced NiAl. The ductility of the composites at room temperature is also superior to the monolithic NiAl.展开更多

The conversion to the product was complete. and TiB_2 particles in the matrix were uniformly dispersed. The inter faces between nail and TiB_2 were atomically flat. sharp and free from any inter facial phases in most cases. In some cases. however. thin inter facial amorphous layers existed at NiAl/ TiB_2 interfaces. In addition, the microstructure and inter faces were highly thermal stable. In all processing states. the yield strengths at room temperature or at 1000℃ of the composite were approximately three times as strong as that of the unrein forced NiAl. The ambient fracture toughness of the composite was also superior to monolithic NiAl.展开更多
