Abstract
A new ceramic functionally gradient material (FGM) with controlled hardness and fracture toughness is presented Very hard SiC and soft, fracture resis tant Ti3SiC2 ceramics were manufactured as one multilayered composite. This composite was prepared by hot-pressing from SHS-derived powders. Microstru cture and indentation tests proved the FGM structure.
