The dependence of the densification behaviour on the TiN-content and on the grain size of TiN was investigated. Starting from the thermodynamical considerations the influence of the C- content in the Ti(C,N) on the densification was analysed and tested by experiment.enEigenschaftKompositeparticle-reinforced compositePartikelverstärkungpropertySi3N4Siliciumnitridsilicon nitridesinteringSinternTiNtitanium nitrideTitannitrid666620Densification microstructure and properties of Si3N4-TI-C,N-compositesjournal article
