Rapid densification of the SiC-10, 20, 30, 40wt% TiC powder with Al, B and C additives was carried out by spark plasma sintering (SPS). In the present SPS process, the heating rate and applied pressure were kept at 100°C/min and at 40 MPa, while the sintering temperature varied from 1600-1800°C in an argon atmosphere. The full density of SiC-TiC composites was achieved at a temperature above 1800°C by spark plasma sintering. The 3C phase of SiC in the composites was transformed to 6H and 4H by increasing the process temperature and the TiC content. By tailoring the microstructure of the spark-plasma-sintered SiC-TiC composites, their toughness could be maintained without a notable reduction in strength. The strength of 720 MPa and the fracture toughness of 6.3 MPa·m1/2 were obtained in the SiC-40wt% TiC composite prepared at 1800°C for 20 min.

MgO/Graphene ceramic composites were fabricated by combining combustion synthesis with spark plasma sintering. MgO/Graphene mixture powders were prepared by the combustion reaction between Mg powders and CO2 gas. Dense MgO/Graphene composites were fabricated by spark plasma sintering (SPS) using LiF as the sintering additive. The effect of the sintering temperature on microstructure and mechanical properties of the prepared MgO/Graphene ceramics was discussed. The sintering temperature of the MgO/Graphene mixture powders increased from 900°C to 1300°C. The highest density of 3.43g/cm3 and hardness of 2133MPa were obtained at 1100°C. Compared with monolithic MgO ceramics, the hardness of MgO/Graphene ceramics at the same sintering temperature was increased from 840MPa to 2133MPa.

The γ-TiAl intermetallic compounds were produced at the temperature ranging from 850°C to 1050°C by the Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) process. The effects of sintering temperature and holding time on the mechanical properties of γ-TiAl intermetallic compounds were investigated. The γ-TiAl intermetallic compounds sintered at 1050°C for 10 min showed a high relative density more than 98%, and had the best three-point bending strength of 643MPa, fracture toughness of 12 MPa·m1/2 and microhardness of 560MPa. The microstructural observations indicated typical characteristics of intergranular fracture, which meant the poor ductility of γ-TiAl intermetallic compounds.

Aluminum nitride-boron nitride (AlN/BN) composite ceramics were prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS). The sintering behaviors of AlN/BN composites with 5~15% volume fraction of BN were studied. The influences of BN content, as well as the sintering temperature on the density, microstructure, mechanical strength, thermal conductivity and machinability of the composites were also investigated. The results showed that the full densification of AlN/BN composite ceramics could be realized by SPS technique at the temperature no higher than 1800°C for 3 minutes. The thermal conductivity of AlN/BN composites is in the range of 66~79W/mK, and AlN/BN composites can be cut or drilled by carbides or even steel tools when BN content is 15% volume fraction. The mechanical strength of AlN/BN composites is about 330MPa and is not remarkably affected by the addition of BN. The improvement of mechanical properties of AlN/BN composite ceramics is due to the fine and homogenous microstructure developed in the SPS process.

Zirconia (Y2O3)-alumina ceramic nanocomposites were fabricated by spark plasma sintering (SPS). A commercially available nanocomposite powder TZP-3Y20A was used as starting powder, the other from conventionally mechanical mixed powder 3YSZ-20A used for comparison. The effect of sintering temperature on the densification, sintering behavior, mechanical properties, and microstructure of the composites were investigated. The results show that the density increase with increasing of sintering temperature, and thus mechanical properties were strengthened with enhancing of densification. The nanocomposite powder TZP-3Y20A was easily sintered and good mechanical properties were achieved, compared with the powder from conventionally mechanical mixed, where the maximum strength and toughness of composites are 967 MPa and 5.27 MPam1/2, respectively.
