This calcination cycle will help us to obtain Ti(C,N)- based cermets with fine microstructure and low amount of metal binder avoiding mechanical milling, the risks of handling nanoparticles, as well as overcoming the lack of availability and the high prices of those metal nanoparticles. The obtained structures were characterized by differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetry (TG), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and energy-dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy (EDX).6application/pdfeng© 2016 European Powder Metallurgy AssociationCore-shell structuresCermetsMetal nanoparticlesDifferential thermal analysisThermogravimetryX-ray diffractionField emission scanning electron microscopyEnergy-dispersive X-Ray spectroscopyconference proceedingsMaterialesopen accessWorld PM2016 ProceedingsCC/0000027570
