Description
The goal of this project was the exploration of high-temperature-resistant tool materials consisting of metal-ceramic composites for the ultrafast sintering technique FAST². Extremely-high-temperature- and wear-resistant metal-ceramic composites on the basis of interpenetrating ceramic and metal microstructures are employed as a solution method. This so called preform-MMC was produced with the new technology of high-temperature-squeeze-casting (HTSC).
