AlMgB14–TiB2 composites with ideal structures are successfully prepared by field activated and pressure assisted synthesis. The effects of different TiB2 contents on the relative hardness and toughness of the composites were investigated. The results showed adding TiB2 could both increase the hardness of AlMgB14 and improve the fracture toughness. The TiB2 contributed more to the hardness than to the toughness. The microstructure analysis shows that the main toughening mechanisms of AlMgB14–TiB2 composites are hard phase dispersion strengthening, high-strength interface bonding and the high elastic modulus of TiB2. Therefore, reducing the particle size of TiB2 to nanoscale is an efficient way to improve the toughness and hardness. The results of friction and wear experiment at room temperature have shown that the addition of TiB2 into AlMgB14 enhances the abrasion–resistant property.

Directionally solidified oxide eutectic ceramics were prepared from Al2O3, Ln2O3 and ZrO2 based binary or ternary systems. Their microstructures consist of continuous networks of single-crystal Al2O3 and oxide compounds (LnAlO3, Ln3Al5O12) which interpenetrate without grain boundaries. The outstanding stability of these microstructures gives rise to a high strength and creep resistance at high temperature. Influence of growth conditions on the morphology of the as-obtained microstructures was studied. Preferred growth directions, orientation relationships between phases and single-crystal homogeneity of specimen were revealed. Low residual stresses were measured in the binary eutectics and fracture toughness at room temperature was improved by the addition of zirconia at a eutectic composition in ternary systems.

Nb/Nb5Si3 in-situ composites are very attractive structural materials for these materials perform a good balance in mechanical properties, including a high strength at high temperature (>1373K) and reasonably high fracture toughness at room temperature. Metastable phase Nb3Si plays an important role in the properties of Nb/Nb5Si3 composites by affecting microstructure and volume fracture of ductile phase. In this paper, Nb-10Si-xMo and Nb-18Si-xMo (x=0,5,15) are prepared by arc melting and annealed at 1473K for 100h. Single edge-notched bending (SENB) test was used to study the fracture toughness of Nb-Si-Mo alloys. The stability of metastable phase is analyzed by XRD. The room temperature fracture toughness of Nb-10Si is 10.47MPa(m)1/2 and higher than that of binary Nb-18Si alloys at near-eutectic compositions. The addition of Mo improves the fracture toughness of as cast Nb-Si alloys from 4.1 MPa(m)1/2 to 9.9MPa(m)1/2 at near-eutectic compositions and decreases it from 10.47 MPa(m)1/2 to 8.8MPa(m)1/2 at hypoeutectic compositions.
