The morphologies of the transition metal carbide (TMC)(ZrC x, NbC x, and TaC x), transition
metal nitride (TMN)(TiN x), and transition metal diboride (TMD)(NbB2 x and TaB2 x) particles …

The surface energies of the {100} and {111} surfaces of TiCx and TiNx with different
stoichiometries (x≤ 1.0) were investigated using the density-functional theory, employing …

The influence of trace B (boron) element on the morphology of TiC crystals in an Al–Ti–C–B
master alloy prepared by a melt reaction method has been investigated in this paper. The …

Nanocrystalline TiC was directly synthesized through a single-step reaction of TiCl4 and
CaC2 powders at 500° C. X-ray powder diffraction indicated that the product was cubic TiC …

The results of TiC crystals and Ni microstructure studies by means of transmission electron
microscope are presented. It was shown that Ni may be used as high temperature solvent for …

The results of TiC crystals and cobalt matrix microstructure studies by means of transmission
electron microscope are presented. TiC crystals were obtained by the HTS method using …

Laser ignited self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (LISHS) was used to fabricate TiC
powders. The raw powders are Ti, Al, and C powders, respectively. A pulsed Nd-yttrium …

NiTi shape memory alloys (SMAs) are presently successful in engineering and medical
technology. They combine good structural and functional properties with good corrosion …

Al/TiC composites were synthesised by laser induced self-propagating high-temperatures
(LISHS). The ignition phenomenon was studied. The results showed that the combustion …

Planar stainless steel/stainless steel interfaces, with and without a titanium interlayer and
silicon/silicon interfaces have been produced in an ultra high vacuum (UHV) diffusion …
