The samples of investigated steel/titanium carbide composite were produced by powder metallurgy process, i.e. by powders mixing and compacting followed by sintering in the vacuum furnace. According to the results, steel/titanium carbide composite materials with addition up to 11.9 vol.% of boron carbide are interesting to detailed investigation as well as materials having more than 17.2 vol.% of tungsten carbide because these compositions show significant changes in hardness and coercive force values.}, type={Article}, title={Effect of Boron and Tungsten Carbides on the Properties of TiC-Reinforced Tool Steel Matrix Composite Produced by Powder Metallurgy}, URL={http://czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/116028/PDF/AMM-2020-2-05-Slokar.pdf}, doi={10.24425/amm.2020.132791}, keywords={metal matrix composite, steel/TiC composite, powder metallurgy, properties, microstructure}, }
