Ni-MF/Al2O3 composite was fabricated using traditional method. The specimens covered with graphite were sintered at 1400°C, and the microstructure and mechanical properties of Ni-MF/Al2O3 composites were studied. Results showed that the flexural strength and fracture toughness of the composites were dramatically changed with the content of nickel. When the content of Ni was 15 wt% and no-coated MF was 10%, the composite obtained better mechanical properties, its flexural strength and fracture toughness were up to 734.40 MPa and 10.17 MPa•m1/2 respectively. The toughening mechanisms of the composites were attributed to the fiber extraction and debonding, metal bridging and deforming plastically.

AbstractThis article focuses on nanocrystalline-matrix ceramic composites specifically designed for applications requiring improved fracture toughness. While the models and theory of toughening mechanisms for microcrystalline composites are well developed, the same cannot be said for their nanocrystalline counterparts. The difficulty in producing fully consolidated ceramic composites that retain a nanocrystalline structure is the main hurdle to thorough investigations in this area. Thus, much of the research on so-called nanocomposites has been on materials with microcrystalline matrices and nanometric second phases. In this article, we present the general principles of toughness mechanisms in microcrystalline ceramic composites, and then extend these ideas to consider how they should apply to ceramics with nanocrystalline matrices. While work in this area is still quite limited, we review current research focused on the production and testing of composites with nanocrystalline matrices and second phases, and we recap the results of some promising fracture toughness reports.
