D. Brodkin et Mw. Barsoum, ISOTHERMAL SECTION OF TI-B-C PHASE-DIAGRAM AT 1600-DEGREES-C, Journal of the American Ceramic Society, 79(3), 1996, pp. 785-787
The isothermal section of the TL-B-C system at 1600 degrees C for comp
ositions in and adjacent to the TiB2-TiCx-Ti3B4 compatibility triangle
was revised to reflect the fact that TL(3)B(4) is an equilibrium phas
e in this system. Lattice parameter measurements together with image a
nalyses of SEM micrographs of densified compacts confirm that the end
member of the TiB2-TiCx-Ti3B4 compatibility triangle is TiC0.65 with a
n uncertainty in x of +/- 0.02.
