Abstract
Composites with a functional gradient in the system Si3N4−Al2O3−Y2O3−TiC were made by laminating and sintering ceramic films obtained by tape casting. The films had high contents of TiC and Al2O3 and were of different thicknesses. Materials with a high density and high fracture toughness (K1c≈9.3 MPa·m1/2) were obtained.
