Recently, silicon carbide–boron carbide composite ceramics have attracted more and more
attention. The most important achievements of the silicon carbide–boron carbide composite …

The nano-sized B 4 C–SiC composite powders were in-situ synthesized with high purity in a
short time at low temperatures. In this study, the mechanically activated mixtures of C, B 2 O …

Bulk boron carbide (B 4 C) ceramics was fabricated from a boron and carbon mixture by use
of one-step reactive spark plasma sintering (RSPS). It was also demonstrated that …

This paper investigates the combustion synthesis of NiAl-Al 2 O 3 composites by the heating
of Ni, NiO and Al powder mixture from 20° C to 1300° C. The influence of mechanical …

Boron is a promising additive to hydrocarbon aviation fuels to enhance the volumetric
energy density, which in turn leads to better specific impulse in hypersonic ramjet propelled …

Seeing that opinions vary, no unanimous conclusion has been drawn on mechanisms of SiC
sintered with Mg additive. In this work, SiC porous ceramics were sintered at 1300° C/30 …

The paper presents the results of the experimental development of a technique for
producing silicon carbide from a carbon black and silicon mixture heated to the temperature …

Boron carbide is the third hardest material in the world after diamond and cubic boron
nitride, which is one of the most strategic engineering ceramics in various industrial …

Composites including silicide of tungsten and boride of tungsten intermetallic compound as
reinforced agents in alumina matrix have a good mechanical properties in low and high …
