Study of grains in boron carbide and its composite sintered by spark plasma sintering

Among the ceramic materials, boron carbide (B4C) is a leading candidate for ballistic applications, especially for light armour, since it possesses higher hardness and lower density compared to other ceramics. For ceramics, it is desirable to obtain an ultra-fine grained dense microstructures; an ab...
