A Ti-10 wt%TiB metal-matrix composite (MMC) was produced by spark plasma sintering (SPS) at temperatures of 850 or 1000 degrees C corresponding to the a or the beta phase fields of Ti, respectively. In the interval 400-700 C the MMC produced at 1000 degrees C showed higher strength and lower ductility in comparison with the MMC produced at 850 degrees C. The results of the mechanical tests and the fracture surface analysis suggested higher brittle-to-ductile transition temperature of the specimens obtained at 1000 degrees. This phenomenon can be ascribed to different structures of Ti/TiB interfaces formed during SPS above and below the alpha <->beta transition.
