The Ti3AlC2/Al2O3 in situ composites were successfully synthesized from the system of Ti-TiC-Al-TiO2 by reactive hot pressing at 1350 °C. The effect of TiC content on the phase composition, microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated in detail. The results indicate that the fabricated products possess the highest purity as the TiC contents reduce to 90 % of its theoretical content. This deviation is mainly attributed to the decomposition of Ti3AlC2 and vaporization of Al at high temperatures. The effect of TiC content on the fracture toughness, flexural strength, Vickers hardness of Ti3AlC2/Al2O3 composites was also discussed in detail.
