Abstract

It has been shown that sintering temperature can be lowered and the density, hardness, and toughness of MoSi2 raised by using nanophase MoSi2 and ZrO2 additives. A minimum hot-pressing temperature of 1350 °C is needed for complete densification without a significant increase in grain size.
