It is known that titanium carbide based cermet containing nitrogen(N) in the form of TA or Ti (C, N) shows excellent creep resistance compared with that of N-free cermet. It is expected that when N-free cermet is nitrified during raising temperature and subsequently sintered, it also shows excellent creep resistance. The object of this study is to clarify the above subject experimentally. It was made clear that the creep characteristics of N-free cermet sintered after nitrification under an adequate condition were superior, as expected, though the N content of nitrified cermet was lower than the value of TiC-TiN-Mo2C-Ni cermet.
