Abstract

Mechanically polished surfaces of sintered titanium carbide specimens are studied by scanning electron microscopy, Auger-electron spectroscopy, and electron diffractometry. It is shown that surface layer microplastic deformation occurs during polishing of specimens with diamond powder. This deformation leads to transformation of the FCC-lattice of titanium carbide into the structural polytype 6H.
