ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a titanium carbide/alumina composite material which contains from about 44 to about 54 weight percent of titanium carbide, from about 45 to about 53 weight percent of alumina, and less than 2 weight percent of titanium nitride, titanium oxide, titanium, or mixtures thereof.
The total amount of carbon in the titanium carbide component of the composite is least 19 weight percent. However, the amount of free carbon in this component is less than about 0.5 weight percent.
