Properties of High-Temperature Ceramics and Cermets. Elasticity and Density at Room Temperature

Abstract

In order to provide some of the basic data necessary for the effective utilization of ceramics and cermets in various high-temperature applications, a specimen 'bank' of such materials, mainly commercially fabricated, was established for the measurement of physical properties and constants. This Monograph describes: (1) The materials and some of their fabrication data; (2) bulk densities; (3) theoretical densities; and (4) the dynamic room-temperature elastic constants. Data are given for 46 sets of specimens, representing 20 different materials; these include oxides, carbides, borides, cermets, and an intermetallic compound. A statistical evaluation was used for analyzing the data.
