Influence of C doping on the fracture mode and abrasive wear of Al2O3

Previous studies have shown that the addition of SiC nanoparticles to Al2O3 changes the fracture mode from intergranular to transgranular and in doing so improves the wear resistance. The reason for this is not clear but a change to the grain boundary chemistry caused by impurities such as C added w...
