Abstract
Interaction between titanium and SiC particles was studied by electron microprobe, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The distribution of the reaction products from the SiC to the titanium end is reported. Particular attention is given to the microstructure and phase analysis in areas near to the SiC. The implications of the observed microstructural and structural details are discussed.
