Abstract
The effects of processing on the microstructure and properties of MoSi2 are examined. A diverse array of samples, processed through a variety of means, were investigated for their microstructural features and indentation fracture behavior. Results from this study indicate that a finely dispersed secondary phase enhances tortuous crack paths, crack branching, and microcracking, thereby improving fracture toughness. The effects of substitutional alloying (Re, Al) and composite additions (SiC) have also been investigated.
