ABSTRACT:
The invention is directed to a non-vapor phase process for forming a metal/ceramic composite containing a relatively inert metal such as silver, copper, or nickel by the reaction of a reactive metal or metal alloy containing the inert metal, and a sacrificial ceramic preform. The resulting metal/ceramic composite is essentially the same shape and dimensions as the sacrificial ceramic preform, and exhibits improved physical and mechanical properties, including improved corrosion and wear resistance.
