In order to improve the high temperature strength of tungsten, 30 vol. Pct ZrC particles were added to the tungsten matrix to form a 30ZrCp/W composite. The tensile properties from 20℃ to 1880℃ of the composite were examined.It was shown that with increasing testing temperature, the nonlinearity of the stress strain curve of 30ZrCp/W composite becames obvious over 1200℃ and the Young’s modulus decreases and the elongation increases. The ultimate tensile strength increases at first and then decreases with increasing testing temperature. The maximum strength of 431 Mpa was obtained at 1000℃. The strengthening mechanism at high temperatures is the load transfer to ZrC particles and dislocation strengthening of the tungsten matrix with an effect of grain boundary strengthening.
