Mechanical properties of tic based cermet

Conventional cermets (WC–Co) are tough and hard; however, these materials possess poor oxidation resistance and plastic deformation at high temperature, which prohibit their application at elevated temperatures. As a result, a growing interest has been given to the use of TiC-based cermets because of their sev-eral advantages. However, using TiC-based cermets in its early stage is not advisable because of their inherent brittleness at low temperature.

Thus, scholars have attempted to improve the mechanical properties of TiC-based cermets. In general, the mechanical properties of cermets depend on chemical composition and sintering temperature. Thus, the present study aimed to summarize the current state of knowledge concern-ing the effects of chemical composition, microstructure, and sinter-ing temperature on the mechanical properties of TiC-based cermets.
