Abstract

Novel ceramic-metal intercalation compounds useful in the formation of densified ceramic-metal articles are prepared, for instance, by exposing a ceramic to an organometallic compound in a low dielectric solvent. The use of the ceramic-metal compounds in the formation of articles by densification allows achievement of densified compositions having at least one of increased density, hardness, and toughness.
