Abstract

oxidation alumina aluminum nitride titanium nitride mechanical properties ceramic composites
The study examines the effect which the composition of hot‐pressed electroconductive ceramics has on their structure, mechanical properties, and oxidation behavior, for ceramics of the type AIN–Al2O3–42 wt% TiN, differing in the AIN/Al2O3 ratio. The results are physico‐mechanical property data, including density, hardness, strength, fracture toughness, and wear resistance. A correlation was found between the wear resistance and fracture toughness. The analysis of oxidation products revealed the formation of α‐Al2O3 and rutile in the temperature range from 600° to 1100°C and aluminum titanate above 1200°C. The spallation of the oxide layer caused low oxidation resistance of Al2O3‐rich composites above 1250°C. The oxidation of composites was compared with the oxidation of pure TiN. The relationship is discussed between material properties, composition, phases, and processing parameters.
