Wf. Zhang et al., Microstructure and resisting thermal shock behaviors of TiC-Al2O3/Fe functionally graded materials prepared by SHS/PHIP, J MAT SCI T, 17(1), 2001, pp. 65-66
The microstructure and composition of TiC-Al2O3/Fe functionally graded mate
rials (FGM) prepared by self-propagating high temperature synthesis and pse
udo-hot isostatic pressing (SHS/PHIP) were studied, and the resisting therm
al shock behaviors were analyzed. The results show that TiC-Al2O3/Fe FGM ha
s graded composition distribution. No cross-section crack through the layer
s was found in the tests of thermal shock and fatigue.
