摘要
The C40 Mo(Si0.75Al0.25)(2)/Al2O3 Composites Were prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS) of mechanically alloyed (MA) powders. The Mo(Si0.75Al0.25)(2)/0-20 vol.% Al2O3 materials, showing micron and submicron composite structure, possess a hardness of 13.9-14.6 GPa but a poor toughness of 1.78-1.80 MPa m(1/2). The addition of 30 vol.% Al2O3 leads to the formation of the micron C40 Mo(Si0.75Al0.25)(2)/Al2O3 composite with an intergranular distribution of Al2O3, that results in a drop of the hardness to 10.2 GPa and an improvement of the toughness to 3.67 MPa m(1/2). The transition of the cleavage facets to the intergranular fracture with the addition of Al2O3 is assumed as the main toughening mechanism. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
