Resumen

En cuanto a los materiales compuestos de base titanio (TMC), sus propiedades dependen en gran medida del material de refuerzo empleado para su fabricación; dando lugar a una gran diversidad de investigaciones sobre los TMCs. Considerando la diversa tipología del refuerzo, en este estudio se trabajó con seis tipos de partículas cerámicas: B₄C, SiB₆, TiB₂, TiC, TiN y BN. Para poder comparar su comportamiento e influencia sobre las propiedades de los TMCs, se empleó siempre la misma proporción con respecto al material de partida, 30% en volumen. Entre las técnicas que se conocen para desarrollar TMCs, la pulvimetalurgia ha sido propuesta como una vía favorable por un número significativo de autores. En este marco, para la realización del presente estudio, se utilizó la novedosa técnica Rapid Sinter Pressing, debido a su flexibilidad, repetibilidad y reproducibilidad, así como a sus reducidos tiempos de ciclo. La temperatura de procesamiento (930 °C) se estableció con la intención de evaluar cómo los refuerzos afectan de diferente manera, en función de su reactividad con la matriz de Ti. En este sentido, el objetivo principal de esta investigación ha sido realizar una comparativa del comportamiento de siete TMCs fabricados vía de Compactación por Sinterización Rápida (Rapid Sinter Pressing) bajo las mismas condiciones de procesado.
