It was found that flexural strength, Young's modulus and fracture toughness of the composites were improved by addition of more than 2 vol%-CNT. In the composites with more than 3 vol%-CNT, the oxidation resistance of the composite was degraded. In comparison with Al2O3-26vol%TiC sample as TiC particle-percolated sample, the Al2O3-12vol%TiC-3vol%CNT sample, which is not TiC particle-percolated sample, shows almost the same mechanical properties and electric conductivity, and also shows thinner oxidized region after oxidation at 1200°C due to less TiC in the composite., 14th International Symposium on Eco-Materials Processing and Design, ISEPD 2013; Kagoshima; Japan; 15 January 2013 through 18 January 2013, Materials Science Forum, 761, pp.83-86; 2013}, pages = {83--86}, publisher = {Trans Tech Publications}, title = {Effects of CNT Addition on Mechanical Properties, Electric Conductivity and Oxidation Resistance of Al2O3-TiC Composite}, volume = {761}, year = {2013} }
