By doping titanium hydride(TiH2)into boron carbide(B4C),a series of B4C+x wt％TiH2(x = 0,5,10,15,and 20)composite ceramics were obtained through spark plasma sintering(SPS).The effects of the sintering temperature and the amount of TiH2 additive on the microstructure,mechanical and electrical propert...
