Metal ceramics, also known as ceramometal or cermet, represent a class of composite materials that amalgamate the desirable properties of both metals and ceramics. These materials possess a dual-phase microstructure comprising a metal matrix and a ceramic phase, strategically designed to harness the strengths of each constituent. Combining the toughness and ductility of metals with the hardness, wear resistance, and high-temperature stability of ceramics, metal ceramics offer a versatile array of applications across various industries. The synthesis of these compounds involves intricate processes, typically starting with the formation of a metal matrix that acts as a foundation. Subsequently, ceramic particles or phases are introduced, either by sintering or powder metallurgy techniques, to create a composite with tailored properties. The selection of constituent materials, particle sizes, and the distribution within the matrix significantly influences the final properties of metal ceramics. This class of materials finds extensive utilization in cutting tools, wear-resistant components for industrial machinery, dental prostheses, and biomedical implants due to their exceptional mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility. Continuous research in optimizing the composition and manufacturing methods continues to expand the potential applications of metal ceramics, fostering advancements in fields demanding high-performance materials capable of withstanding extreme conditions while maintaining structural integrity and durability.
Conventionally, joining of ceramic materials by brazing is performed by a two-step process. The first step consists in coating the ceramic surface with a metal layer in order to improve wettability…
