摘要
The polytypism of SiC, phase transformation of ZrB2 and the interfaces between SiC and ZrB2 were investigated using high resolution TEM in a hot pressed 10 vol.% SiC-ZrB2 composite. In most cases, no grain boundary interphases between hexagonal ZrB2 and 6H-SiC phases were observed with SiC being both inter-and intragranular. Occasionally, 6H-SiC transformed into 3C and 15R and hexagonal ZrB2 transformed into cubic ZrB. High resolution TEM showed no grain boundary interphases in most regions. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and electron energy-loss spectroscopy analyses showed the presence of oxygen throughout the sample. The phase transformation of SiC and ZrB2, and the interphase formation between SiC and ZrB2 grains are discussed.
