Abstract

Plasma sintered SiC-C composites were observed by a transmission electron microscopy in order to investigate the physical state of the carbon, the interface structure between SiC and C, and the grain boundary structure in SiC. The present observation was helpful in discussing the sintering mechanism and in explaining the high hardness and high toughness of plasma sintered SiC-C composites.
