Conclusions
Results of x-ray phase analyses have shown that Al2O3-TiN composites produced by nitrogen and vacuum heat treatment and hot pressing retain a two-phase structure at temperatures of up to 2300°K. The changes exhibited by the Al2O3 and TiN lattice parameters may be indicative of oxidation and subsequent dissolution of the resultant titanium oxides both in alumina and in titanium nitride. The extent of this reaction depends on the method and conditions of heat treatment.
