  • Molybdenum disilicide composites
    Patent number: 6300265
    Abstract: Molybdenum disilicide/&bgr;′-Si6−zAlzOzN8−z, wherein z=a number from greater than 0 to about 5, composites are made by use of in situ reactions among &agr;-silicon nitride, molybdenum disilicide, and aluminum. Molybdenum disilicide within a molybdenum disilicide/&bgr;′-Si6−zAlzOzN8−z eutectoid matrix is the resulting microstructure when the invention method is employed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 22, 2000
    Date of Patent: October 9, 2001
    Assignee: Regents of the University of California
    Inventors: Robert P. Rodriguez, John J. Petrovic
