Improved mechanical properties of metal-matrix composites reinforced with ceramic particles are due to the transfer of shear load at the matrix/reinforcement interface. As a result, composite interfaces play important roles in determining the resultant composite properties. The aim of the present study is twofold: (a) to identify the interfacial reaction products using X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and CBED, and (b) to demonstrate detailed 3-dimensional morphologies of the interfacial reaction products using SEM. Powder extraction procedure employed for XRD and SEM applications is also presented.
