Abstract

Detail microstructure of LaB6-ZrB2 composites has been characterized by TEM and HRTEM. The directionally solidified ZrB 2 fibers in LaB6 matrix near LaB6-ZrB 2 eutectics present at least three growing relationship systems. In addition to previous report of [001]LaB6 / [0001]ZrB2 relationship, [0 1̄ 1]LaB5 / [001]ZrB2 and [1 2̄ 0]LaB6 / [0001]ZrB2. were identified. Different with [001]LaB6 / [0001]ZrB2 system, the interfaces of [0 1̄ 1]LaB6 / [0001]ZrB2 and [1 2̄ 0]LaB 6 / [0001]ZrB2. show non-coherent and clean interfaces. There is neither glassy phase nor reaction products found at the interfaces.
