Abstract

The sintering behavior of TiC-Ni-Mo cermet using a nano-size titanium carbide (TiC) powders was investigated. Nano-sized TiC powders with high purity, high surface area, and low production cost were synthesized from carbon coated TiO2 precursors utilizing a patented process [1]. The sintering studies showed that an increase in theoretical density (TD) as Molybdenum (Mo) content increases. TiC based cermets were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Vickers hardness, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Mechanical properties, electrical conductivity and oxidation resistance results show potential applications as interconnect for Low/Intermediate Temperature Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) and cutting tool inserts.
