Novel Ceramic-Fiber-Reinforced-Metal-Intermetallic-Laminate (CFR-MIL) composites, Ti–Al3Ti–Al2O3–Al, were synthesized by reactive foil sintering in air. Microstructure controlled material architectures were achieved with continuous Al2O3 fibers oriented in 0° and 90° layers to form fully dense compo...
