Abstract
A process for synthesizing TiC composite materials containing a fine dispersion of TiC crystals in a metallic matrix. The matrix may contain one or more of metals selected from A1, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mo, Ni and Ti. The process comprises rapid heating of a mixture of titanium alloys with carbon, preferably by arc melting or thermal spraying. This rapid heating step is also effective when the starting materials contain titanium, other metals and carbon.
