On physical and thermochemical properties of high-purity Ti3SiC2
2002
Abstract Dense polycrystalline Ti 3 SiC 2 of high purity was successfully fabricated from Ti/Si/2TiC powders by reactive hot-isostatic pressing (HIPing) at 1688 K, 100 MPa for 7.2 ks. A flexural strength of 537±16 MPa and a Vickers hardness of 4.0±0.2 GPa was obtained. The partial pressure of Si is important to maintain the stability of Ti 3 SiC 2 at high temperatures. Ti 3 SiC 2 tended to decompose in N 2 , O 2 or C atmosphere at temperatures above 1623 K. The isothermal oxidation kinetics of Ti 3 SiC 2 became parabolic in the temperature range of 1423–1523 K with an activation energy of 295 ±20 kJ/mol. At temperatures above 1573 K, the oxidation kinetics became linear.
