ABSTRACT:
A composition and method for producing boron carbide/titanium diboride composite ceramic powders is disclosed. The process comprises the ordered steps of (a) intimately mixing as reactants boron carbide and a titanium source, such that the average reactant particle size is less than about 20 microns and substantially all discrete reactant areas are less than about 50 microns, and (b) reacting the product of step (a) under conditions sufficient to produce a boron carbide/titanium diboride composite ceramic powder wherein at least a portion of the boron carbide particles form substrates to which at least a portion of the titanium diboride particles are attached. The method can be used to produce a composite ceramic powder having boron carbide and titanium diboride particles less than about 20 microns in diameter. This powder can then be densified using known densification techniques to form a densified part wherein the titanium diboride grains have an average size of less than about 20 microns in diameter and the boron carbide grains having an average size of less than about 50 microns.
