Microstructure of a SiC/Ti-15-3 compositeA continuous SiC-fiber-reinforced titanium (Ti-15V-3Cr-3Sn-3A1) composite was metallographically examined. Several methods for examining composite materials were investigated and documented. Polishing techniques for this material are described. An interference layering method was developed to reveal the structure of the fiber, the reaction zone, and various phases within the matrix. Microprobe and TEM analyses were performed on the fiber-matrix interface. Detailed descriptions of the fiber distribution and the microstructure of the fiber and matrix are presented.
