Chromium Carbide Based

Ceramic/metal composites (Cermets)

These composites comprise metallic particles distributed evenly in a ceramic matrix. Combining the material characteristics of ceramic and metal in this way produces a new material with new properties. This material is particularly resistant to high mechanical and thermal stress.

Cr3C2-NiCr

with various components of carbide and binder phase
e.g. ^₇₅CrC^₂₅NiCr^₂₀, ^₇₅CrC^₂₅NiCr^₅₀
